The Witch Step 13 

Now twist the both strands together, the tighter its twisted the better. The size of the 'links' will vary depending on the strands thickness, that's why I like to use thinner strands. If you twist it counterclockwise, the weaving will go from the curve to the eye of the hook, and from down to up direction, If you twist them clockwise the weaving will look to the other direction, this is pretty much interesting to make several ribbings twisted in opposite directions, the weaving will end with some V shaped pattern. The can be specially nice looking using thin strands of floss and on a large hook.
