Help with pattern - beginner!

Hello!

I am relatively new to knitting and have a question about the following pattern, it says:

Round 1 (RA) Lli, SBM, Rli, k to next marker, Lli, Sm, Rli

So from after the first right lifted increase, do i knit to the next marker, slip it and then do another left lifted increase, slip the marker, do a right lifted increase and then repeat this?

Thanks for any help!!

(k to next marker, Lli, Sm, Rli)
Yes, that’s correct. This is the repeat.

Ah thank you!
So the full round is -

Round 1 (RS) Lli, into the last stitch on the previous round, sbm, Rli, k to next marker, Lli, sm, Rli , repeat * to * 2 more times, knit to BORM

Is the k normal stitches or am i repeating the lli & rli stitches?

Again, thank you so much!

K to the next marker means knit stitches to the next marker. There is a LLI before the marker and a RLI after the marker. The only place you work the increases is immediately before and after the markers.
What is the name of your pattern?

Thank you - that makes sense!

I’m working on the Gallant sweater pattern by Caidree :slight_smile: it’s meant to be manageable for beginners!

Nice and it looks like a good introduction to sweater knitting.
