How to increase and mark the increase stitches with stitch markers in English rib

In this DROPS video we show how to increase and mark the increase stitches with different colors, the same way we do in the «Cheers to Lift» jumper in DROPS 212-28.

INCREASE AS FOLLOWS IN THE STITCHES WITH PURPLE MARKERS:
Work 3 stitches in the stitch and yarn over and move the marker as follows: Knit together the yarn over and stitch, move the purple marker to this stitch (i.e. stitch on right needle), but do not slip the stitch and yarn-over off the left needle, make 1 yarn over the right needle and knit together the stitch and yarn over 1 more time = 3 stitches (= 2 stitches increased). The marker sits in the first increased stitch (= knitted stitch).

The next time you increase, work in the stitch with the marker.
INCREASE AS FOLLOWS IN THE STITCHES WITH GREEN MARKERS:
Work 3 stitches in the stitch and yarn over and move the marker as follows: Knit together the yarn over and stitch, but do not slip the stitch and yarn-over off the left needle, make 1 yarn over the right needle and knit together the stitch and yarn over 1 more time and move the green marker to this stitch = 3 stitches (= 2 stitches increased). The marker sits in the last increased stitch (= knitted stitch). The next time you increase, work in the stitch with the marker.

On the next round work the 3 stitches into the English rib pattern as follows: Make 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl, purl the yarn over, make 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl.

This jumper is worked in DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk and DROPS Glitter, but in the video we use DROPS Snow.

So since there is not a given language for us to use, we instead have written instructions to accompany the video, and then there is no sound to disturb while watching.
