Hi Mirjam,
Thanks, but yes, I do know how to do the common decreases. I was
referring as to how to decrease using this chart and the symbols.
This is the first time I've knit a sweater from a chart. In this
particular chart part of the pattern is P1, YO, P1 in the same stitch,
so for decreasing you just P1, and that gives you two decreased
stitches. I figured this out, but had it confirmed by DA via private
email. I was quite pleased that I was smarter than I thought when it
came to knitting...LOL!
Have a great day...Linda
