So you would P3 and then cast on stitches with the same yarn, use the "backward loop cast on" method. you can turn the work over to cast on the stitches, then turn the work over again to continue purling the sts that are inbetween the two "holes" being made. Does that make sense to you? If not, email me! missa@moonarts.com Hi Marissa

You've got such talent. I'm working on your puppy sweater, but I'm stumped on: P3, cast on 6 sts, p to bind off sts, cast on 6 sts, p3 How do I cast on 6 after I purl 3? Do I use a second skein? And could you explain "P to bind off sts" to me? I'm kind of a newbie and I can't get past this part. Thank you so much. I really like all your designs. You’ve got such talent.

I’m working on your puppy sweater, but I’m stumped on:

And could you explain “P to bind off sts” to me?

I’m kind of a newbie and I can’t get past this part.

Thank you so much.
