my pattern calls for: yo, then k1,yo,k1 all in same stitch. Is there supposed to be 3 new stitches on needle or this way it comes out to 4 or 5. If I just do: yo,k1,yo, my pattern doesn’t work out right. Please help. I have not seen a pattern that says yo first, then k1,yo,k1. Could this be a mistake.

Thank you

I have been attempting to make a scarf with what claims to be the berry stitch. It is not the same as this, but says,

BERRY STITCH (multiple of 4 + 3) (Let’s use 15.)

Row 1 (RS): K1, (K1, K1tbl, K1) into next st, *P3, (K1, K1tbl, K1) into next st, rep from *, end K1.

Row 2: K4, P3tog, *K3, P3tog, rep from *, end K4.

Row 3: K1, P3, *(K1, K1tbl, K1) into next st, P3, rep from *, end K1.

Row 4: K1, P3tog, *K3, P3tog, rep from *, end K1.

I got the first row to come out even. But unless I have lost my mind, the second row is wrong, and past that who knows.

Has anybody got a clue what’s wrong with this pattern, or even what stitch it means to be? Thanks—fran

I have been using this stitch in a pattern I’m working on right now. My problem is when I drop a stitch by accident. I have no idea how to pick up the stitches without tearing out the rows down to that point. Is it possible to pick up lost stitches/repair mistakes without “going back to the drawing board”?

Thanks for the photos!
I just got back to knitting and USED to have a stitch dictionary. NEVER loan out such an item.
You will never, ever get it back.

Thanks again!

in your reply to debbie- she says that she holds her wool with the left hand- as do I, therfore when you do a yo- you would pass the yarn under the left needle- from bottom to top. knitting left handed is backwards, but the rest of the instructions are correct for either hand.
