I am new here but I have already many helpful things.
I have been knitting for many years and lately I have bought some books from Kim Hargreaves and I have noticed that she has her own knittin language.
I have a some questions about the following.
1)
I have 54 stitches and than it says continu in pattern as now set, shaping sides by inc 1 st at each end of next and 2 (2:2:2:4:4) foll 12th (12th:12th:12th:8th:8th) taking inc st into rev st st. 60 (62:64:66:70:72)
I think I have to increase in the following row and after 2 again and than 12 rows later. That will be in total 6 st more.
So row 1 inc
Row 2 incr
Row 3
Row 4
Row 5 and 6 inc each end 1 st
Row 19 and 20 inc each end 1 st
Am I reading correct?
The following I do not understand
taking inc st into rev st
The next part I also do not understand everything.
2) I have 60 st
Dec st at each end of next 3 rows then on ever foll alt row until 42 st rem, then on foll 5 rows, ending with a ws row, cast of 32 st
I read next 3 rows the until there are 42 st rem, so I see it that 9 rows I dec each row 1 st, then after 5 rows each end 1 st dec, do I have to do that each 5th row so totally 25 rows than I have dec 10 st or 5 rows after eachother 1 st dec at each end. I think the last but I am not certain.
Hope someone can explain.
Already many thanks for your help
