I am a relatively inexperienced knitter and have a question about casting off/decreasing. I use the slip stitch/pass over and off method. When transferring that slipped stitch over to the other needle, do I
-
Always slip it purlwise (unless otherwise directed)
-
Slip it knitwise when working the right (knit) side of the item and purlwise when working the wrong (purl) side
-
Keep it consistent with the pattern. If the stitch would have been a knit stitch, go with knitwise. If it would have been a purl stitch go with purlwise.
I went with the third way when increasing, but Iām not sure that was correct. Was it?
