I absolutely love ribbed stitches! I have been using more and more of the front post double crochet (FPDC) and the back post double crochet (BPDC), for my items. They work so well for a variety of items or just to add some texture. One of the best parts about using ribbed stitches is that is has a nice stretch to it, for hats and waist bands. Therefore, I decided that my next free hat pattern will be using this technique! I will be posting a picture tutorial on how to work around the post next weekend with a free little bear hat pattern, that will be a similar design to my pom-pom hat!

Here is a previous pattern that I published and have for sale in my store, with lovely pictures from Memories by Michele!
