Here's where your nine stitches a
K1, inc, *k1, yo, p1, p3tog, p1, yo,* k1, inc, k1. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^^^ ^ ^ ^ ^ 1 2 3 4,5,6 7 8 9 The increase is usually made by knitting into the front and back of one stitch, in this set that would be stitches 1 and 8. If you do not already have good knitting instructions, someone else here can either describe how, or recommend an URL with a good diagram of how to do this kind of increase. |

I was under the impression it was on the next stitch. Like in this example, it states to knit 1, than increase on the next one Laurel |

You may be right. Upon closer inspection of the pattern Bryan is using,
they are using a different increase -- lifting the bar between two stitches. This should be done between stitches 1 and 2, and between 8 and 9. "SuperEeyore" wrote in message ...

Bryan:
Just in case you didn't get the answer you're looking for. . . You have 9 sts at this point - so I tried to show where these 9 sts go to (numbers in [] show the 'original' stitches): Row 7: K1, inc, *k1, yo, p1, p3tog, p1, yo * k1, inc, k1 [1] (add) [2] (add) [3] -3 [4,5,6] [7] (add) [8] (add) [9] (total stitches at end of the row = 11 sts) Does this help?? If not, I (or someone else) might be able to think of another way to say/show it. Sonya Bryan wrote: Ok, finally figured out cast on, knit, & purl.

This should be done between stitches 1 and 2, and between 8 and 9. I've found this to called Make one (or M1), but if there aren't enough = sitiches the result would be that you would have one stitch more, so = maybe that is right. Sarah --=20 |

Ok, this makes sence on "paper", I'll give it a try later. It'll probably be
a while tho as I told my sister if she whats her shawl soon, to pich a crochet patter, and I think she's found 1 or 2 I can do. So, after that's done I'll come back to this and try later.
