A Fix for Weak Ribbing
To strengthen ribbing that’s weak or has stretched out of shape, treat it like a casing and insert a piece of wide elastic through it.
Cut a vertical slit through the wrong side of the ribbing. Insert the elastic through the ribbing (attach a safety pin or bodkin to the end of the elastic to make insertion easier), then sew the ends of the elastic together. Slipstitch the ribbing closed.
