Knit 1 into the next stitch?
I started a pair of leg warmers, and the pattern tells me to "knit 1 into the next stitch." Who knows what this means? Thanks a bunch.

You are to knit into the front and back of the same stitch (KFB). So knit as you would regularly then without removing the stitch from the left hand needle knit into the back of the same stitch.

Amy has a nice listing of how-to-do increase stitches here:
