When i look at the video, i dont see the knitter doing the yarn over (YO). From the pattern, it looks like [yo, k, yo, k, yo, k, yo, k, yo, k, yo] , is it correct that i shd do the [YO] in bet the K 4 tog & K 4 twisted tog, so as to compensate the decrease of stitches?

DROPS Design :

Dear Mrs Lim, correct, this means you will work A.2 as follows: K4 together, (YO, K1) x 5, YO, K4 twisted together = you decreased 3 sts 2 times = 6 stitches and there are 6 yarn overs = number of stitches remain the same. Happy knitting!

Would you please tell me the name of the twisted stitch in DROPS 168-15? I have watched the video repeatedly but, without sound, it goes too fast for me to understand how to do the stitch. I would either appreciate your telling me how the stitch is completed or telling me the stitch name so that I might find a slower video online. Thank you.

Pourquoi dans le modèle 167-10 faut-il monter 75 mailles lorsque le A1 =8 m. A2= 59m. et A3= 6m. Je compte 73m en tout.
