The neckband, and other ribbing was created by hand manipulating 3 x 2 rib for the hems and 1×1 rib for the neck. Any Mid gauge knitting machine can be used but be sure to check the tension before you begin. If the machine has a ribber attachment, the ribbing can be made automatically. Hand knitting the ribbing is also an option.
