Expanding a Rib With a M1 Increase

The is a useful method of subtly enlarging a 2 x 2 rib. A 'make one' increase is used between pairs of stitches to change 2 knits to 3 knits without disturbing the sides of the ribs. The M1 may be made knitwise or purlwise, with or without a twist. This technique is useful at cuff edges and sock tops.
