Description
A knitting technique that creates a right-leaning crossed stitch, commonly used in mock cable patterns to add texture without bulk.
Detailed explanation
The Right Twist (RT) is a method for crossing two stitches to create a texture that slants to the right. It is widely used in mock cables and lattice designs because it produces a twisted effect without the need for a separate cable needle. This technique adds definition and surface interest to garments such as sweaters and socks.
