[keramian]

hello again, ok i tried again to do this pattern from georgia vincent. this time i placed markers when i did my first rnd and i have 53 stitches between each marker. so now i go and do my rnd 2 and it says to k1, (k50, s2kp2) how does this add up to 53? to me it adds up to 54. since i have 53 stitches, if i k1, then k50 more and then i need to have 3 at the end so i can slip 2 and then k1 and pass over the 2 i just slipped. am i doing it wrong by placing the markers? thanks again. karen
