Hi Sirena, yes you are correct on these terms.
Also most of these terms wer covered in the Introductory to Loom Knitting 
classes that Courtney taught a few months ago.
Courtney, do I have your permission to forward the Intrductory to Loom 
Knitting classes to Sirena?
Sirena, please don't hesitate to give a shout out if you need any more help.
Henry on behalf of the Loom Team

Be sure to sign up for any loom classes. All of this was covered in Henry's 
class that ended Tuesday night.

Hey, loomers. I was hoping someone could help me translate this
pattern into plain english. I need to make a scarf for my daughter by
wednesday, which is her birthday, and I just found this in a book I've
got on my computer. Any help would be great, especially as I know I'm
bound to have a few false starts.

Pattern For A Scarf

Crochet cast on 10 pegs.

Row 1: Slip peg 10
knit to end of row

Row 2: Slip peg 1
P8
K1

Row 3: Rep row 1.

Row 4: Rep row 2.

Row 5: Slip peg 10
knit peg 9
purl peg 8
knit pegs 7-4
purl peg 3
knit pegs 2-1

Row 6: Slip peg 1
knit peg 2
purl peg 3
knit pegs 4-7
purl peg 8
knit pegs 9-10

Rep rows 5-6 until scarf reaches 49 inches.

Rep rows 1-4.

Bind off using the flat method and weave in ends.

***

I know, for most of you, that looks pretty self-explanitory. I'm more
asking, P and K, does that mean Pear and knit respectively? And rep
means repeat, yes? And slip means skip that peg when wrapping?

Thanks, guys

Sirena
