Can't understand the instruction
by: Ratchadawan

Hi Mona,

Thanks for sending your question.

The instruction says "k5 (k2,m1,k1,m1)4 times,(k2, m1) 2 times".
Your first option was right. You do k5, then do (k2,m1,k1,m1) for 4 times, then (k2,m1) for 2 times. There is no need to repeat these again after you're done, unless the instruction says so afterward.

Have fun knitting!

Ratcha
