For the love of fluffy ribbing! I adore beautiful textures in my knitting, and what better way to showcase them than with the Brioche and Fisherman’s Rib stitches?

Both techniques add extra volume and "chunkiness" to your work, creating thick, squishy, and textured fabrics. Though they share some similarities, they differ in construction and appearance—like fraternal twins, they offer the same look through different methods.
