Now you will have 47 sts. All even rows no increase. Therefore, every two rows, you will have four increase sts. It is not a 10 increase, but 10 stitches repeat. <BR/>Yes, it is a mirror imagine on both side. <BR/>Hope I answer the question, if not clear, please ask again, I will try to explain.<BR/>SKskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06455060862653941661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053557909003975350.post-7194334707191573432007-05-05T19:18:00.000-07:002007-05-05T19:18:00.000-07:00The decreases are changed on either side of the ce...The decreases are changed on either side of the center in order to make the shawl look prettier. Each side is a mirror image of the other. Sort of like when you fold a piece of paper and make an inkblot.<BR/><BR/>It is a new skill, so of course it is awkward at first but you will see that just a few things will click, you will be flying along, and you will be so happy you tried! If our explanations are not clear enough, ask again - someone else may be able to explain it better...Gryffinitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12088154248948680142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053557909003975350.post-23754392585803394872007-05-05T12:20:00.000-07:002007-05-05T12:20:00.000-07:00On row 15 ...

It's more like 3 increases on each side; there are 3 YO increases on each side of the center K1.<BR/><BR/>The "repeat" part is the section in parentheses with the asterisks around it like this: * ( repeat section ) *<BR/>and this "repeat" section is worked over 10 stitches.<BR/><BR/>If you're on your first repeat of the pattern (rows 15 to 34), you are most likely going to work that repeat section just once.smariekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100767973885900243noreply@blogger.com
