This avoids accidental changes when altering the settings for sections of garments or forgetting to reset it ie. If you prefer to start with a 2 X 2 industrial rib, arrange needles to give a neat join at seams, plying yarns may again be required to give the rib more body.

Alternative needle set ups I personally never do 3 circular rows after first cast on row it will produce a floats on one side of the rib, which may be noticeable in your final fabric on one of the 2 garment sides. To close holes when transitioning to garment pieces in other than every needle ribs, rack the beds one full turn, knit 2 rows, rack back again, and proceed as needed for desired fabric. The lili buttons on the ribber are representations of an every other needle set up, akin to the 1. X1 card use on the main bed. It is essential for an even number of needles to be in use when the lili buttons are in use pushed in, and turned toward the lili markings on each side of the ribber carriage, R to R, L to L. An easy way to insure the even number is to look at the needle tape markings, which alternate between  dashes and blank spaces between them. A line dash and a space make a pair, so if you start with a needle on  a line, the last needle on the opposing side needs to be on a blank space, or vice versa.

As with single bed fabrics, double bed slip stitch creates knits that are short and skinny, tuck creates short and wide ones. As stitches slip, tuck, or get longer there will also be bleed through of the alternate color on the front, knit face of the fabric. In small, balanced repeats this can create a color mix that may make the result either interesting or confusing. Garment swatches need to be larger than usual for single bed. I tend to use at least 8. When using no more than 2 colors per row, Japanese machines offer the option of a color separation that knits one design row per row, which is an added way to reduce motif elongations in the finished knit. Passap knitters may use tech 1. For different separation methods for double bed fabrics see color separation posts on them. One pass of the carriage causes every other needle to knit. As the ribber carriage moves back to the starting side, the alternate needles knit, producing a single row of color.
