Top knit tip

This pattern uses the abbreviation kpk, which means knit, purl, knit all into the same stitch. To do this, knit a stitch as you normally would, but don’t drop it from your left needle. Instead bring your yarn to the front and purl it, again without slipping the stitch off, then bring your yarn to the back and knit it, this time dropping it from your left needle like normal. This will create a double increase.
