I want to knit this bag and the pattern states as follows:
Cast on 36 sts. Row 1: K13, hook a split lock marker into a cast on edge in between the needles, and place a ring marker on your right hand needle
The split marker goes where? It can’t be in mid air and the ring marker goes on the right hand needle and I assume, if they wanted the split lock marker on the left needle, they would have said so.
Can you tell me what this means?
Thanks.

Well, you are working the first row after the cast on. After you knit 13 of the 36 stitches you want to put a split lock marker right on the cast on edge between the last stitch you knit and the next stitch on the left hand needle. With my long tail cast on I have 2 little strands there, I think I’d put it on the strand in front, nearest me. Then before you start knitting again, also place a ring marker on the right hand needle, then you knit on as directed.
