Let’s begin!
Start by casting on a multiple of 14 stitches + 2.
Row 1: Purl all stitches
Row 2: knit 1, knit 1 through the back loop then through the front to increase 1, knit 4, SKPO, knit 2 together, knit 4. *Knit 1 through the back loop then through the front to increase 1, knit 1 through the back loop then through the front to increase 1, knit 4, SKPO, knit 2 together, knit 4*. Repeat from * to * until there are 2 stitches left, knit 1 through the back loop then through the front to increase 1, knit 1.
