Hi, I love this pattern which I found on thisisknit but I can’t figure out some abbreviations? What is pm also m1? Also by a round do you mean 1 row plain 1 row purl?
Thanks and happy knitting!
hey, just postin some responses to the questions here!
pm = place marker
m1 = make one stitch
look here or youtube for more detailed info http://www.knittinghelp.com
yea the image here looks like 2×2 rib. the images on ravelry with all 1×1 for the ribbing look great so i wouldn’t worry about it too much.
when knitting in the round you are only working the outer face which allows you to knit stockinette stitch with knit stitches on every round (row) only use knit stitches

I love the Hands-up pattern but I have a couple of questions.
Thumb gusset: should the number of stitches be an even number? Either 18 or 20
The top & thumb ribbing on your picture does not seem to be 1×1.
Thank you.

I printed this pattern out some time ago and now am ready to
knit one up. Is this a children’s or adult size pattern?
Thank you.
