Trinity Stitch help

#1

I am trying to learn new stitches and I thought I’d try something with the trinity stitch pattern. When it says (K1, p1, k1) all in same stitch how do you do it? Do you knit the stitch, slip back onto left needle, purl it, slip back onto left needle and then knit it again!!!

#2

You knit it, leave it on left needle, twist right needle to knit into back of the stitch, leave it on left needle and bring right needle back to the front of the stitch and knit into it again and then slide off left needle. You should have 3 loops or stitches on right needle from this one stitch.

It’s also called bramble stitch, so you could try searching that.
But once you get the hang of it, it’s so cool.

Thanks! I picked out my yarn and now I can’t wait to start on my Trinity a.k.a. Bramble scarf :^)
