Another Doily Question

Submitted by cathyia on Wed, 06/29/2011 - 06:05

I finished the last doily and it came out great! Thanks KT for the help with the crochet edging.
Now I'm on to another doily and am confused on what I'm suppose to do on the 16th Round. It says:

16th ROUND: K 1 st to last needle, * K 2, y o, K 3 tog, y o, K 2, y o, K 2, y o, K 3 tog, y o, K 1, K 1st st of next needle onto same needle, y o, repeat from * all around ending round with K 2, y o.

I tried knitting all the way around until I got to 1 st before the last dpn and then started the repeat, but that didn't seem to work. I'm not understanding what " K1 st to last needle" means.

Here's the pattern:

I'm using 5 double pointed needles as stated in the pattern.

Doily

I am using 5 dpns (4 to hold the fabric and 1 to knit with). I usually only use 4 needles, but did notice this pattern told me to start with 8 sts and divide onto 4 dpns, so that's what I did.

I haven't looked at the pattern but before I do I would like to know if you are using dpns (double pointed needles) or are you using circular needles. If you are using dpns, the designer is giving you some specific directions on what to do when you come to the end of the stitches on a particular dpn. If you are using circular needles you will need to make an adjustment of these directions.
