I am making a hat and have been going along w/ no probs. Now I am going to form the crown and I have a question.

row 1 RS *K6, K2tog; rep from* to end, k4 (4, 2, 6)

Ok I get everything but the k4 (4,2,6) I am making a large 23" so I assume I use the 2, so does that mean I substitute the 2 for the K6?

Thanks in advance

Yes, you'll finish up with the number of stitches for your size.

Thank you Ingrid. I will knit 2,k2tog Got it!!

Noooo, you do the k6 k2tog all around, but when you get to the end you'll only have 2 sts left, so you just knit those 2.

No no...the K2 only applies to the end. The begining you work as its written.

Hi I'm a new member to this forum and i need help on some knitting instructions...

can anyone help me please?

Topaz, post your question in a seperate thread.

Hi Jeanette, I have a seperate thread for the same question too it's named knitting help

This should help you in the future. Everything between the *'s is repeated until you get to the point you don't have enough sts left to do this, then you finish by following the instructions after the last * and the ,. Hope this helps.
