This Rib and Chevron Pattern is a beautiful stitch pattern with a very interesting texture.

In fact, this pattern is just one of many variations of the ever-popular chevron pattern.

This particular stitch pattern has chevrons that are broken up by ribs of stockinette stitches at regular intervals.

Conversely, even though the pattern is a ribbing pattern of sorts, it is not stretchy enough to replace any conventional ribbing.

On the other hand, this creates an interesting texture that is ideal for sweaters.
