Pattern Description
Rice Knitting stitch is a simple textured pattern featuring knits and purls over two rows. The texture comes from knitting into the back loop. The versatile knitting pattern is easy to learn for beginners. It is somewhat similar to Double Moss in appearance.
The stitch is ideal for different types of projects but its textured surface makes it perfect for washcloths and scrubs.
