Round (knit in the round using the magic loop technique)
One increase on the same stitch (knit one stitch through the front loop and, without dropping the st, knit again through the back loop) = kfb
Left leaning increase (insert the needle from front to back, under the bar between the stitches, and k this bar as normal) = m1l
Right leaning increase ((insert the needle from back to front, under the bar between the stitches, and k this bar through the back loop) = m1r
Left leaning decrease (slip the first st knitwise, the second purlwise, place them back on the left needle and knit both together) = ssk.
Bind-off (knit the first 2 sts in pattern (k or p), lift the first st over the second and drop it, decreasing by one. Repeat until you have 1 st left at the end of the row.
