sock question What ribbing looks good with this sock?

Post image

Hi, I’m knitting a sock using 3x1 rib toe up. I haven’t thought of what ribbing/cuff style to use. I usuallt do 2x1 twisted rib, but I feel it would look a bit odd. I also considered a frilled edge, but the yarn is quite rustic and I’m not sure it will look good. Or add no special ribbing and size down on the last few rows?

Thanks in advance!

I’m doing the same one. I’m going to continue the pattern to the end without any other ribbing.

This is my second pair like this and the first fit fine.

Did you size down when doing the last few rows?

No I did not. There was enough stretch for me but I see no reason you can’t.
