STITCH EXPLANATIONkef (knit into front and then back)An increase worked as follows:

  1. Knit the next st through the front loop, but do not remove the st from your left hand needle.
  2. Knit the same st once more, this time inserting your needle through the back loop of the St. You will have created 2 loops (sts) on your right hand needle.

  3. Simple increases and decreases are worked to shape the Shawl.
