Abreviation help

General Knitting

Hi,
I am knitting a hood on a dools jacket and the pattern says k22, up1, k2, up1, k22.
What does it mean by Up 1.

cheers :knitting:

A link to you pattern might be helpful or the name and where you got it. I’m thinking it’s an increase, maybe a M1, or it could be KLL or KRL.

Probably increase sts; sometimes ‘knit up’ means to pick up stitches, but since it’s only a couple here, would mean an increase.
