Description
The front or “public” facing side of a knitted project that is intended to be seen.
Detailed explanation
RS stands for Right Side, indicating the face of the fabric that appears on the exterior of a garment or the top of a flat item. This side usually displays the primary pattern definition, such as cables or colorwork, and is distinct from the Wrong Side (WS). In stockinette stitch, the RS is characterized by smooth, V-shaped stitches.
