bottom ribbed edge flips up on sweater?

Saw a great hint I will try next time I knit a sweater. It is a hint to prevent the ribbing from flipping up when you knit a sweater from the bottom ribbing up. The solution is really simple. When knitting a sweater from the bottom up to prevent the ribbing from flipping up, on the last row of ribbing, slip all the knit stitches as if to purl. That's it.

I will try it the next time, as I have that problem. There is also a more complicated hint to prevent the ribbing from flipping up when you knit the sweater from the top down, but I have not read that part of the hint as yet. Will report later.
