Tip!

If you knit for a knitting model a edge pattern, corded in turn 1 stitch right and 1 stitch left or 2 stitches right and 2 stitches left, it is better if you knit stead 1 selvedge stitch 2 selvedge stitches right. So do you avoid that the knitting rolls in and it is more comfortable to handle it on the finishing. Also this form of work eased you the counting of the rows trough the “ineps”, which results in the 2nd row at the edge. Also at the finishing it is easier to work up this edge.

(deep knitted) the below stitch of the previous row right and at the end of the row the below lying 4th stitch from the previous row right, too. Cast off the above lying stitch right.
