Thanks!
This is exactly what I was looking for to finish a sweater.
I am altering a very simple sweater pattern by doing a “double twisted rib” so I needed to do the horizontal type button band. I was not sure how so this is great.
I think I will practice on a few inches first. I also have to work in the pattern’s repeat which is 6. I probably need to work in 6 + 4 to end up with the two reverse stocking stitches at top and bottom.
Anyhow thanks so much for your gauge!!

Thank you so much!! I spent an entire day doing an add on vertical k2, p2 button band with 70 stitches–it was a disaster! I just finished re-ding it , this time with a horizontal k2 p2 band using your formala. It’s an enormous success! Now to side 2.
