for rows 25 and 26 you would use these instructions to do them in single crochet rib:
Round 1 (row 25): 1 dc/fp (front post stitch), 1 dc/bp (back post stitch), repeat to the end of the round
Repeat round 1 for row 26.
In other words - alternate 1 front-post double crochet and 1 back-post double crochet all the way around row 25 which will give a ribbed effect, then repeat the same pattern for row 26.
Here's some nice instructions showing how to do front post and back post stitches
