Knit through front and back of loop? Huh???

[durabledora]

Hi all,

I'm working on the Hurry Up Spring Armwarmers from SnB Nation. I'm doing great on the dpn's (love them!), but now that I've gotten to the pattern part, I'm REALLY confused. I'm only on the second line of the chart and I have no idea what some of the words mean.....Here's the part where I'm stuck:

sl right needle through next 3 sts as if to k, k through the front, back and front of all 3 sts

Huh??? I don't understand this crazy moon language. Can someone please explain what the heck I'm supposed to do?

Thanks!

To knit through the front and back of the loop, you stick your right needle into the stitch on the left needle as if you would do a regular knit stitch and knit it except at the end where you would normally slip the stitch off the left needle, DO NOT do that and instead slip the needle into the back of the stitch and knit that and only then slip the stitch off the left needle.

Hope that makes sense!
