It is easy to make a mistake when starting the ribbing, I guess. (I have not even done it because it was not needed in any project to this date (but might soon be since I need to make a cellphone sock for a friend and have not decided if I want to knit in the round or on straight needles.).

The ribbing goes k1 p1 (the way it looks in the end but you have to do:

*k1 wyif sl1 p1 wyif sl1* (you still have to slip every second stitch with the yarn in front while working the stitches that you work as knit 1 purl 1).

I hope this helped!
