hey ladies!

i got the lastest issue of vogue magazine-the early fall 2010 and i sooo annoyed because i dont know wat this one stitch symbol means in this chart.

the symbol is called a Boxed 3 stitch repeat-here is a pic of the chart and what the symbol looks like

the symbol (the very last one):

where to apply it in the chart~as ontlined:

the red line running though incidates i got to rep these rows 8 times

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT DOES THIS SYMBOL MEANS? lol

im GUESSING it means do the stitchs at the same time-on the same row~k1, yo, k1, THEN k those 3 and pass the last st over?

i mean how would i even handle the next row~the row above it? or at that the row above the box...

lol see where im confused! lol

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP[/img]

Read the pattern carefully... Patterns will usually tell you how to do special stitches like that somewhere... But sometimes they camoflage the instructions..

If that fails.. check for errata online.

If you're still having problems, have a look on Ravelry to see if anybody else is making it and can help you out.

I have to agree with GA... it must explain this somewhere in the magazine. Some of the magazines have the stitch information in the front or back of the mag if they aren't in the pattern it's self.

I looked online a little and couldn't find a description.

Let us know what you find.

I didn't even get that far. Shocked

What on earth is a K3p and a Kk2p any way.

Somewhere in the magazine there must be a list of abbreviations and explanations of how to do the stitches.

ETA: Is it the cropped lace jacket? There are people on Ravelry making it and finding errors. But I havent seen this mentioned only someone asking what Kk2p means. But there is rather a lot to go through.
