Hi, I'm new to the forum, I'm looking forward to getting involved. :) At the moment my skills are limited to making scarves, but I hope to progress to more sophisticated things!

I'm starting with a kit I got from Patons to make a stuffed bunny - it doesn't seem to complex but I'm slightly confused about how to start it off - sorry if my questions are really stupid!

These are the first instructions for the body:

Cast on 15 sts
Work 1 row
Row 2 - (RS) K1, (M1 by picking up horizontal loop lying before next st and working into back of it, K1) 14 times (29 stis).
Work 7 rows

It begins by saying work in stocking st, starting with a P row.

My questions are:

If I cast on, should the next row then be purled, and then I increase using 'knit' stitches? (Sorry if this makes no sense.)

Which of these videos (http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/increases) relates to the style of increases described?

Once I've done the second row, and increased up to 29 stitches, do I then alternate knit and purl rows, and if so, which do I start with?

Thanks in advance for your help - sorry for the long post!

Purl row 1 that's the WS, then increase on Row 2, the RS knit row. The M1R/M1F would be the increase that's used. Stocking st/stockinette st is knit one row, purl one row alternating them. Since the 2nd row is a knit row, you do a purl row next.

Thanks so much! That was really helpful. :)
