Waving Rib Pattern

This is lovely and worth extra effort. I think I would be great for a sock leg, but you would need an edge that could keep the sock up, there isn't much elasticity to this stitch. With a tight gauge, it could make a great texture for a tank. There is definitely a front and back to the stitch, but if you knit a scarf with it, the back forms a cool checkerboard pattern. I see it looking a Waving Rib Pattern scarf looking might fetching if you know a professor with a tweed jacket.
