This is a bit of a trick: you aren’t going directly from a tubular cast on to a 2\/2 rib; you are making a tubular cast on for a 1\/1 rib, then rapidly using twist stitches to switch to a 2\/2 rib. Since the knit stitches stay knit stitches, and the purl stitches stay purl stitches, it looks as though you have cast on directly to a 2\/2 rib.<\/p>\n

For Cast on, I mean use the Tubular Cast on.<\/a><\/p>\n

Row 1 (RS): Cast on a  multiple of 4 sts, using the waste yarn provisional cast on method, turn.
\nRows 2 – 3: (Sl, p) across, turn.
\nRow 4: (K, 1\/1 RPC, p) across, turn.
\nRows 5 – 6: (K2, p2) across, turn.<\/p>\n

\"2_2ribfromtubularcastonround\"<\/p>\n

Round 1: Cast on a multiple of 4 sts, using the waste yarn provisional cast on method.
\nRound 2: (K, sl wyif) around.
\nRound 3: (Sl, p) around.
\nRound 4: (K, 1\/1 RPC, p) around.
\nRounds 5 – 6: (K2, p2) around.<\/p>\n

If none of this fits your brain, fear not, there are many other tutorials out there, here are two that I liked:<\/p>\n
