Inspiration: This is one of my favorite patterns because it combines two of my favorite stitches: seed stitch and rib stitch. This pattern is a beautiful alternative to a traditional rib stitch and can be used on its own in accessories or in place of edge ribbing in a garment. 

Tip: One tip I find invaluable when planning out designs is to gather all my materials in one place. I always have stitch markers and a tape measure handy! Another valuable tip is to date and title working designs in my planner. This makes it easier to refer to emerging designs later.
