User: Craftorama sent us a picture of her knitted Barbie sweater. Barbie has never looked so hip!
Could someone please help me? I am a beginner but with lots of ambition!
I am finding the pattern difficult at this point
-Cast off 5 sts at beg. next 2 rows (continuing in moss st)
– 10 sts remain
How I am going to manage to remain only 10 sts if I cast off 5 from 20 in total ?
I would appreciate any help.
Kind regards,
Patricia ( from Brasil)
It means you cast off 5 from the beginning of the next two rows – so cast off 5 continue to end (15 stitches) then for the next row, cast off 5, continue to end (10 stitches remain.)
