Hi,
I’m hoping that someone will be able to help, I’m thoroughly confused with a beanie pattern.
I have 60 stitches and need to reduce it to 54 and the pattern says Row 1(RS): slip 1 st purlwise, K1B, P1, K1B, K2tog, [(P1, K1B) X4, K2tog] X5, P1, K1B, P1, K1.
The part that I’m having trouble with is a combination of the part in brackets Row [(P1, K1B) X4, K2tog] X5 and the amount of stitches that I work. When I count everything I only count 22 stitches that I’ve worked out of the 60 and the x4 and x5 is throwing me off.
I appreciate any help that I can get, I’ve just completed a pile of rows in fisherman’s rib that I don’t want to ruin by doing the wrong thing.
Thank you in advance.
Shel
