decreasing at neck edge: alt rows vs every 2nd row

by Nancy
(Southwick, MA)

The instructions are dec 1 stitch at neck edge...on alt rows AND AT THE SAME TIME cast off stitches at beg of 2nd row.

I am confused between alternating rows and every 2nd row.
To me, these are the same.
Please assist!

Thanks so much in advance.

Hi Nancy,

"The instructions are dec 1 stitch at neck edge...on alt rows AND AT THE SAME TIME cast off stitches at beg of 2nd row."

For the dec 1st at neck edge every alternate row is like decreasing every other row.

The cast off part is only for the beginning of 2nd row. Check to see how many you have to cast off.

Have a great one!
