I started this thread yesterday but it seems to have been deleted, so I’ll try again. I am working on a dog sweater, I am doing the K2P1 ribbing for the neck. On the last row of ribbing I am supposed to “increase 2 (2-2-1-5) st(s) evenly across last row”. The size I am doing is the one that requires increasing by 1 st. I am quite new to knitting so although it seems simple I do have a couple of questions. First, where should I do the increase, at the edge of the row (beginning or end) or right in the middle? Second, what is the best method for making an increase?
Making a Single Increase
Welcome to KH!
You can probably make the increase anywhere but I’d use the center portion of the piece. A M1 or your favorite increase will work here.
Sorry about the deletion. I’m not sure why that happened.
We have been inundated with spam so once in a great while someone gets caught in it. We usually ban them though not delete so I’m not sure. Glad you’re still here!
Thank you! I went ahead and made it in the middle of the row, so we’ll see how it turns out.
I was banned actually, but I emailed the a moderator and got to come back. My thread went bye-bye though.
Yup, definitely got caught up in the spammer storm. Thanks for persisting and good luck with the rest of the dog sweater!
