Hello! I am working on a toy design by Alan Dart (Herbert the Gardener) and I’m at a part where a cap peak is being made. The pattern states to cast on a length of stitches, then decrease for a handful of rows, then cast off (30 sts down to 6 sts).
Then the pattern reads:
“With RS of work facing, K up 30 from front edge.
P 1 row.
Work the decrease rows again.”
What does it mean when the pattern says to “K up 30 from front edge? Am I picking up 30 stitches and somehow knitting into them again?
This pattern has been so much fun so far, but I’m getting a bit nervous for all the sewing and making up at the end—I could have more questions then
Thanks for any help you can provide! You all always have the best advice and guidance—thanks in advance.
