I am stuck! I have made my front and back pieces and now am at the part where it says "With RS of work facing, miss next 17 sts. Join yarn with sl st to next st." and I have no idea what it is talking about.
You have made this little 'arm' thing that has decreased to 10 sts and now you skip 17 sts??
Can anyone help? thanks if you can!!!
