decreasing in lace pattern

Hi Paula,

Thank you for the question.
Yes, you have to eliminate the beginning and the end stitches. It also depends on the layout too. For your instruction, you have k1, yo, at the beginning. I would eliminate the YO instead of the k1 because the yarn over would make it holy.

So, I would do k1, sl1, k2, PSSO and so on.

I hope you find this helpful.
