3 x 3 rib stitch

Punto Canelón:
1ª h: *3 pd, 3 pr* Repetir toda la hilera.
2ª: tejer los puntos como se presentan.
Repetir siempre estas dos vueltas.

3 pd = 3 punto derecho (plain)
3 pr = 3 punto revés (purl)

Ribbing is so versatile and you can be as creative as you like. If you want a ribbing stitch pattern that's really stretchy you may enjoy the 2 X 2 ribbing and even a 3 X 3 rib is nice and stretchy too.

My turtleback sweater is made with 3 X 3 ribbing and it's super stretchy. And by the way it's completely beginner friendly. :)
