Hi everyone! I’m reading these instructions for a cardigan but don’t quite understand the picking up part. After knitting the back which looks like /\ ,I need to work on the armholes. The instructions start off like:
WS: k1, p2, k1, p2, k1.Turn piece so RS is facing you. Working from left to right, use crochet hook to pick up in reverse direction and knit one stitch into each row and make YO groups as below.
With yarn attached to live stitches and beginning next to last stiches worked, YO , [pick up pattern] until 63 stitches.
I understand how the pick up and knit structured work but don’t understand the very first line, like do I just k1,p2,etc and then do the pick up & knit stitches?
I bought the pattern so didn’t want to list the entire detailed steps but this is the Ravelry link with pictures

Thanks for your help!
