[P next st tog with corresponding st 7 rows below]

Hi, all!

I’m knitting the rabbit “bootees” from Debbie Bliss’ [I]Nursery Knits[/I] I’ve come across something confusing. These are two-needles baby booties and I’ve just turned the heel. Now it says:

Next row: [P next st tog with corresponding st 7 rows below] to end.

Whether or not you’ve knitted this particular patt, I’d be grateful for any advice or instruction. Thanks!

Count down 7 bumps from the row you’re about to work. Pick it up with your right tip and put it on the left needle. Then purl that and the next stitch together.

I am at the same spot and very confused as well, has anyone knit these very cute bootees?

The result of purling the row stitch by stitch with the row 7 rows below is a ridge or tuck in the bootie. Follow Ingrid’s directions and it will work out very well.

These are Ingrid’s directions. Pick up the purl bump with the right needle tip. It’s similar to this video:


In this case the current next stitch and the bump 7 rows below are knit together but you can equally well purl 2tog if that’s the pattern directions. I find it easier to pick up all the purl bumps on a size smaller needle. Then I’m sure to have the correct number of sts and not skew the little tuck or hem.
