Hello

There must be a pattern you have already set up on previous rows and this row is telling you to purl 3, then follow the pattern of the fabric for the rest of the row until you have 3 stitches left, then purl 3.
You will need to look at your fabric to ensure you are continuing the pattern in line despite any edge stitches or sometimes with a change in the number of stitches due to increases or decreases.
Some patterns are easy to follow such as stocking stitch or rib, others are more tricky such as lace, and require you to “read” your fabric to ensure you continue the pattern correctly.

If you have a tricky one and need help you can ask again or post a photo or a line of the pattern instruction, I’m sure someone could help you through it.

Hi and welcome!

Help...I'm stuck!

For the 2nd row, purl 3sts then work in the pattern stitch for a wrong side (WS) row until 3sts from the end of the row, purl 3. From here, repeat rows one and 2. Every time you work a right side row (RS), you’ll be working the decreases that are in row 1, the slip one, k1, psso and the k2tog. You’ll continue with rows 1 and 2 for 24 rows. What is the name of the pattern?
