Help with K2 (yfwd) twice.
 

I am getting ready to start my first sweater which has lace work. I understand most of the instructions except for the K2 (yfwd) twice. Can someone help me.

That means knit 2 while holding the yarn in the front of the work, like where you hold your yarn if you are about to purl.

Hmm :thinking:

I interpret that as K2 then YO twice.

I would expect to see "yfwd, K2" to get Kelly's interpretation ...

Soooo .. Hmm ... PBystrak? Does the pattern have holes in it??

:??

I going to have to agree with Kelly...knit 2 with yarn in forward position :thinking:

Ive never seen a YO called a yfwd.... :?? and, if you were YOing twice, wouldnt the only possible purpose be an elongated st? :thinking:

Yep ;) That's why I'm wondering if the pattern is holey ... :thinking:

:mad: well then, why wouldnt they just SAY YOx2??? :mad:
Those stupid pattern people!

I agree with ya! ;) They should say YOx2. But I could be wrong in my interpretation ya know :oops:

Hey PBystrak?? Where are ya?? Can we get some more pattern details please? Is the pattern online so we can take a looky-peek? :mrgreen:

:??

k2 yfwd 2
 

The pattern is not on line. The sweater does have holes in it it is a lace pattern. The next row does say to k1 p1 in the yfwd.

Can you post a link to the pattern?
