Perfect explanation, nice and slowly shown video example. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing. That is how I thought it was done but I saw a video the other day where she pulled through two before she yarned over and went into the secong stitch. It is confusing on what sime people call different dtutches or show how to do something.

OK .. unless I'm missing something, you have just made the 2 bottom row stitches into 1 .. a decrease .. so I'm thinking you would have to double increase on the next row to keep your work square/even .. how does that work out ??? Just asking
