Help with Scarf!!!!
Hi Everyone! I am trying to knit this scarf for my mom and have run into some confusion! What is the difference b/w SL1 and PSSO?? I have looked everywhere on the internet and cannot find much about PSSO. And last question, what does it mean on Row 2 & 4 (WS)..Do I flip the needles or witch hands or just continue doing what I'm doing?? Thank you for any help!!! I posted the instructions below as well as the link.

Slip one means to pass the stitch unworked from the left needle to the right needle. PSSO means to pass slipped stitch over. So in
