Help! how do I fix this - forgot to do a YO increase

How-to Questions
1

I am doing a sweater pattern which requires a yarn over increase on either side - I forgot to do it two rows back and I have no idea how to fix this.

I know how to use a crochet hook if I had say, purled instead of knit, but don’t know how to add a yo increase back in.

Any videos that would show this? Or pictures or advice? I really want to keep going on this project, and I feel sooo dumb I can’t figure out how to fix this.

You can use the crochet hook to pick up the yarn strand between the 2 sts where it should have gone, and then on the next row too. Sort of like picking up a stitch that dropped. They may be a little tight, but you can use the hook to wiggle some extra yarn from the sts beside them.
