Even though many of us don’t have the pattern, if you type out the row you’re coming up short on it would help us help you. Is the slip stitch at the beginning of the row, or is it like slip 1, k1, psso, or something else?
Are you perhaps slipping the stitch off the left needle and dropping it nowhere? If so, slip stitch means that you [I]transfer[/I] the stitch from the left needle to the right needle, usually in a purlwise fashion unless directions say otherwise. Let us know how you make out.
