Where to Find Ribbing Worldwide
I've gotten a lot of questions about where to buy ribbing since publishing the Linden pattern. I have a few places that I've been able to find ribbing but I knew there were more out there so I asked you guys in a previous post where you've found ribbing you liked either online or in a brick & mortar store. You guys really came through with suggestions, so many that it took me quite a while to compile this list! I've listed the shops in order of the country they're based in for easier and cheaper shipping options for you guys, then divided those lists into online and brick and mortar only shops. Each shop includes a link and on each online shop that link will take you directly to the ribbing section of the website as this is what people seem more interested in rather than just knits in general. If a shop only sells knits and not ribbing I've excluded it from the list as pretty much every shop ever sells at least one knit and I didn't want the list to get bogged down and out of hand. I've also listed where the shop ships to based on what I could find on their websites. I'm sure there are more we're missing so if you've come across this list and have a great shop that should be included, leave me a comment below and I'll do my best to keep the list updated!
*Please note that this is a crowdsourced list and I have not personally ordered ribbing from each one of these shops. Feel free to review any of them in the comments below if you do end up ordering!
