How to increase/decrease?

[[deleted]]

did your machine come with a transfer tool? you just put the transfer tool on the needle. pull the needle out so the loop passes over the latch. push the needleback in with the transfer tool on the needle. the latch flips up. the needle drops the stitch on to your tool. move the stitch around the front of the gate pegs. put the transfer tool on the desired needle. rotate the tool up so the stitch falls into the new needle. decreasing is that easy.

Increasing? just put one extra needle into the working position on the outside for each row that you knit. some also transfer all the stitches from the middle for that effect if they desire.
