"Mine is stockinette too. Row 9 is a repeat of row 7, which is a repeat of row 5, which is a purl row, so 8 9 are a knit then purl rows."

"Part 1 is not and should not look like stockinette stitch, rows 1-4 are knit rows, row 5 is a purl row, row 6 is knit, row 7 is purl, rows 8 9 are knit rows."

"When you are on row 24 are you going back to row 13 of the pattern for the left side? For the right side you use the exact pattern for the rows and for the left side you start with row 13 which means you are going rows 13-23 then rows 1-12. I have not made this specific pattern but have made something similar with similar instructions. I found it was easiest for me to write out the pattern with the appropriate instructions for each row for each side of the sweater/vest. I hope this helps."

"The abbreviation yfwd means yarn forward, it has nothing to do with the age of the pattern, it is used to instruct which way to wrap the yarn around the needle, in this pattern a yo could be lost, so you will use yfwd to prevent that from happening, to do it wrap the yarn purlwise instead of knitwise for a yo. Hope this helps someone, happy knitting."
