Can anyone help me figure out this section?

Left Back

P6 (6, 7, 7, 7), (work “inc bind off” to bind off scallop loosely for shape), (p1, pass 1st st over 2nd st, yo, pass 1st st over 2nd st) 9 (9, 9, 7, 7) times, end p7 (7, 9, 11, 11)—12 (12, 15, 17, 17) sts held on right needle for left back.

To see the whole pattern go to http://www.naturallycaron.com/projects/dolphin_bay/dolphin_bay_1.html

I’d love to get advice by email! Thanks,

What’s in the parentheses is how to do the ‘inc bind off’ that you’re to use. So you p 6 or 7, then do the BO over 9 or 7 sts and purl the last sts.

I’m removing your email address, it’s not a good idea to post it to a forum, spambots search for them.

Thanks, what I wasn’t getting was that the whole “inc bind off” pattern was done in each of 9 stitches. Yay! Now I can finish this cool project.
