Drop yarn over??

[Kaydee]

I was thinking about making this scarf for my pal for the international scarf exchange, but I'm confused. What does it mean on row 2 when it says drop yarn over? How do I do this?

A yo is creating a new stitch, on future rows it will have added a stitch (albeit a loose-feeling one). Drop it just like dropping a stitch.

Yup, just let it slide off the needle point.

So it won't unravel? This makes me nervous.

[Ingrid]

It won't unravel because it's not connected to the stitches below it.

Ok, I'm going for it. Thanks!!
