Hi: I’m knitting in the round with 4 needle. The row I’m stuck on tells me to k2tog, yo and repeat for the entire round. My problem is that I end up with 1 stitch left over on a needle then want to switch it to the next needle so I have 2 stitches to k together. I can’t figure out how to wrap the yarn for the yo when I do this. If I just bring the yarn forward as with any other yo, I don’t get the increase. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! By the way, I am a novice.

That’s very helpful tip for me in creating new baby dresses.

UPDATE-

I’m so silly! I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve done and unraveled the eyelet row. I finally realized last night that I forget to PASS OVER the last stitch. I forgot to do it because by that time all the stitches are on the right needle, it looks like you’re done. Don’t forget to finish that last decrease!

I am making a baby dress with eyelets (specifically Debbie Bliss’s.) It’s the first time I have tackled eyelets and I seem to be having a problem. The pattern calls for
K1,[k2tog, yf, skpo] 20 times. 61 sts. I currently have 81 stitches on the needles and no matter how many times I try it I always end up with 62 stitches not 61. Am I truly doing something wrong or could this be a misprint in the pattern? (I’ve already checked for pattern revisions on the Debbie Bliss website and there are none.)I also did a practice row just casting on 21 stitches and then doing an eyelet row and I still ended up with an even number of stitches left after completing the row (16 sts.) Please help, I’m going crazy.

Hi, thanks for the great tutorial!

Just one thing – you’ve mentioned that some patterns call for the yarn over to be dropped on the next row – how do we do this?

Thanks!

I am just beginning to learn to knit in hopes of making prayer shawls for out sick and shut-ins. My question is this, in the pattern I am using it states that on row 9 K2, (yo, k2tog) to the 1st stitch before marker…..

Do I repeat everything in the parenthesis including the yo till I get tot he 1st stitch before the marker or do I forget about the yo and only repeat the k2tog until I reach the 1st stich before the marker? Would you be so kind as to give me a helping hand by emailing me at angelwings2_2001@yahoo.com

Thanks you for taking the time to offer me and my friends a helping hand. God bless.

After you knit the row: yo knit 2 together, I want to knit the next row but when I go to knit I can’t figure out where the stitches are and I don’t get round holes.
