Hello! I’m very new at knitting, glad this website exists. I’m trying to do a knitted octopus pattern and i’m stuck on this part!
Row 33 : RS - put first stitch one piece of waste yarn
(WYR), k2, put last stitch on the other piece
of waste yarn (WYL)
Row 34 : CO1, p2, CO1
Row 35-36 : repeat Row 33-34
Place leftmost two stitches on WYL (Waste Yarn Left).
Ie. Slip two st, put next two stitches on WYL.
The first tentacle will use these two slipped stitches
I have never worked with waste yarn before… I tried looking at tutorials on youtube but i just don’t really know what the pattern wants me to do here. The number of stitches i end up with doesnt seem to match what the pattern is saying. And when and where am I supposed to slip the stitches?
Sorry I’m so lost… If anyone could help i would be very grateful!!
