The yarn over (or YO) is a stitch in knitting that makes a small hole in your fabric. It can also be used to create buttonholes. It is very simple to learn. It is often abbreviated by knitting patterns as "yo", however, it can also be abbreviated many other ways.
This stitch is made after a knit stitch. Begin by holding the yarn on the front end of your work and wrapping it around. The back of each stitch will be knitted into your fabric before it is dropped off the left side needle. The next stitch should be worked. You may need to do the opposite of what you normally do with certain patterns. In this instance, you will work your yarn clockwise rather than counterclockwise.
You can either use two knit stitches to yarn over or two purl stitches. If you're working the yarn in between two purl stitches you will need the yarn to be passed over the needle once more to form the hole. You will still need to work the yarn in the same way as the knit stitches. It is important to not twist the stitches.
The yarn over can also be used in conjunction with other increases. For example, you may want to increase the number of stitches in your pattern. Using a yarn over increase is one of the easiest ways to increase the number of stitches. This stitch is especially useful for lace patterns.
A yarn over is a way to increase the number of stitches. It creates an extra stitch on your needle. This stitch is also useful in creating decorative stitches like eyelets. It is also useful in working a dropped row within a pattern. The yarn can be used to make a small hole or splice in your projects' fabric.
Wrap the yarn around your right-hand (RH), needle before you can work the yarn over. Your index finger holds your yarn in place. The next stitch is knitted with the new loop. Now you can continue knitting with the stitch that is in front of it in the pattern.
In knitting patterns, the YO is commonly abbreviated by "yo". It is sometimes abbreviated as "M1L" in knitting patterns that use a one-step method to increase stitches. This is a method that creates a bar between two stitch and then works a yarn over the top. It is commonly used with the k2tog rise. It is also used in lace patterns to even up the stitch number.
The yarn over can also be combined with other increases and decreases. To create a button hole or decorative stitch, you might combine a yarn-over increase with a K2tog decrease.
