Body rib flip up

A few days ago I saw a post about the bottom ribbing flipping up on sweaters. I’d never had the problem and didn’t take time to read. Ha! Now, Karma and all that: I looked at my WIP cardigan (top down), and there it was: the bottom ribbing is flipping up. I thought the post was in The Lounge, but I haven’t found it. Does any body remember it?

I remember it, but not sure where. Maybe search on the blog. I’m traveling but if not found before I’m home I’ll try and look. I’m sure you can also find ideas on google.

Thank you, so much. REALLY glad this sweater is top down. Looks like I’m ripping out the button band and the hem. Didn’t like these button holes and was planning on ripping back enough to redo them anyway. Such is the knitter’s life. (And we still love it.)

Timely question! I was knitting bottom ribbing and realized my hem wanted to flip. Now I know what to do. Thanks for posting this.

Must be something in the air affecting us all.
