I'm knitting a cardigan to wear over a dress for a wedding on saturday and the pattern instructs to cast off in pattern and I'm having a nightmare trying to make it work. The pattern is:
P2 yon, s1, k1, psso, P2 rep from to end
It wasn't a problem during the actual body of the knitting but when I come to do the cast off I'm not sure how to go about it. I P2, put one stitch over the other, then yon but then if I put the stitch over the yon, i've cast off my live stitch and then if I s1 and put the yon over that, my yarn is left behind. I'm really tempted to just cast it off in a 2x2 rib (pattern for every other row).
Can anyone make sense of this or am I being particularly stupid tonight?
