Maybe the problem with the curling up ribbing is due to a tight bind off
I have also had several sweaters that the ribbing flips up. It’s not curling at the edge, but rather the entire section of ribbing flips up toward the body of the sweater. I have not really been able to determine the reason for this, and I’m thinking this is the same issue Diane from New York was writing about. Sometimes blocking helps, so I’m guessing it’s that I’ve knit the ribbing too tightly.
I had Addi Turbo lace needles with brass coat. They smelled and became dull. I told Addi and they gave me new needles without brass. Do not get the brass needles. You do not go back to your yarn shop to return needles you need to send them back to. Look at what your needles were packaged in and use that address to return them. Addi snagged my yarn at the joins. I sold ALL my addi’s for pennies on the dollar and use Chicagoo. Chicagoo are a lot cheaper and made soooo much better.
