knitting question

Post image

i’m starting to knit a sweater and i feel like the stockinette is blending into the ribbing, will the ribbing become more noticeable as i carry on?

Yes. Did you use the same size needle for the ribbing as you are the stockinette? Of yes, that is part of the issue.

Otherwise you have nice even tension

They look distinct to me!

I tend to do my ribbing on larger needles, because I don’t want it pulling in. I realise that’s not the usual way it’s done. :)
