[Nfb-krafters-korner] understanding stitch pattern counts: was Looking for a Wavy Knit Pattern

[Debra hernstrom]

Hi,
The pattern itself is 10 stitches as a multiple. 1 pattern, is 10 
stitches, 2 is 20, 3 is 30, etc.
5 stitches are what remains for the left and right edge stitches, that 
remain outside the pattern or between panels of stitches. Hope
this helps.
