Sl1-k2tog-psso

Knitting is full of abbreviations that can be difficult for someone who isn't familiar with the nomenclature to understand.

Psso meaning

The good news is that most of the abbreviations used in the knitting world do make sense once you know what they mean.

One example of a commonly used abbreviation in knitting is psso, which stands for pass slipped stitch over.

It's usually seen with some other information like "sl 1, k2tog, psso." In English, that means slip one stitch, knit the next two stitches together, then pass the slipped stitch over the stitch you just made by knitting two together.

What Does Pass Slipped Stitch Over Mean?

Seeing the instruction to pass a slipped stitch over in your knitting pattern means that you will have slipped a stitch prior to that point recently in the row and that you are working a decrease, because passing the slipped stitch over means you take it up over the top of the right-hand knitting needle and drop it off the needle.

The pass slipped stitch over is performed in the same way you slip one stitch over anot
