Pattern question
I am beginning the top front and back of my sleeveless sweater and the instructions are as follows :
Separate front and back and shape sleeves
Next row: (RS) Remove BOR m, kf/pb, pm, work next row of lace pattern at to 1 st before side m, pm, pf/kb, remove side m, place remaining sts on holder for front (2 sts increased)—76 (85, 94, 103, 112, 121, 130, 139, 148) sts on needle.
I get what the pattern is saying and I get the correct number of stitches however: I am wondering, once I do the increase on both ends of this row and place markers should there be 2 stitches outside of the markers or 1 stitch outside of the markers. I am to continue with the lace pattern as specified but wondered if I lose the stitches I used for the increases as they are both placed on the outside of my markers in addition to the new increased stitches - again leaving 2 stitches (on each end) outside of my markers versus 1.
