http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/purl-stitch
Purling is basically the knit stitch in reverse. Instead of inserting the needle from front to back, you insert it back to front and wrap the yarn as you would with a knit stitch. When doing ribbing (which is what knit 1 purl 2 is), knit the first stitch then bring the yarn in between the two needles to the front of the work and purl the next 2 stitches. To do your next knit stitch move the yarn to the back in between the two needles. Knitting help has great videos to help you visualize these techniques. http://www.knittinghelp.com
you put the needle in the opposite way of the knit stitch
it’s hard 4 me to explain the rest with out confusing you more but at some craft stores they have classes or some sell the cds from red heart (that’s mainly how i learned) that give you instructions in vidio form and comes with patterns! if you still need some help email me on any knitting question even though i get confused i am still wiling to help the best i can
oh and from the library website reserve the knitting answer book and it will also help! knit on!
ps don’t forget to move the yarn from the frount to the back(away from u) after the purl stitch and to move the yarn to the frount after a knit stich! it will be uncomfortable at first trust me.
I think what you are asking is a pattern question – usually written (*k1 p2*) you repeat between the asterisks . You knit one stitch, purl the next two stitches and repeat that to the end of the pattern. It would be a narrow rib pattern as seen from the knit side (the “ditch” of the rib will be deep and the “ridge” half sized). You can also reverse it if you like by simply doing an extra row and starting the “surface” (front side of the knitting) on the side of the ribbing you prefer.
