Question # 1

I'm making a cute Aran Leaf pillow and I have tried unsuccessfully followed instructions on all mentioned above stitches. Here's are the three rows I was having trouble with:

After i cast on 3 sts then the next row:
Row 1: P1. Purl into front and back of next st. p1
Row 2: K1. M1. K3
Row 3: P1. M1. K1. Yfwd. K1. Yfwd. P2

At the end of row 3, i ended up with 1 remaining stitch and couldn't figured out how to have 2 sts.

Thanks!!!
Jan

Hi Jan,

Maybe you already have figured out the problem by the time you get to watch this video. It took awhile before it turned live on Youtube.


Here is a video I made to show you how to do row 1-8. of the Aran Leaf Pillow
