I do not know what the pm and m1 mean? K1, m1, k2, m1, pm, k1, pm, m1, k2, m1, k1 11 sts.

Pm is place marker, m1 is make one. You make 1 by picking up the strand between two stitches on the needle twist it and work it like a normal stitch.

What does k2 mean?

Hi FlaminQat, K2 means knit two stitches. Hope this helps! -Editors of AllFreeKnitting
