So I have been meaning to post this link for a while. When I use the abbreviation M1 it can mean many different things. Here is a link in case you are wondering how I do my M1 for my different patterns.
Flower Headband Ear-warmer, Yummy Beret, Amazon Stripe – M1: I used loop cast on (in the middle of my work instead of at the edge)
Britta Lalena (Lacy) Headwrap – M1: I used the Left Increase. On the last stitch I grab the loop from below but it is kind of tricky as it is on the edge. Another option if you cannot figure this out is to Right Increase on the last stitch instead of Left Increase.
There are many ways to do a M1 and most of them will look the same but just in case you were curious as to what exactly I do…here you are. Happy Knitting!
