Hi,
When you reach the end of the row, you pull up a loop in the last stitch, the you pull another loop through the one you just pulled up (ch 1) before starting your return. Then yarn over and pull through the ch and your first return stitch.
If you don't put that "extra ch" there, your piece will decrease by one stitch.

One more note about the word chart, at the beginning of your row, count your first stitch. So you'll actually start your count with 2.

I find the word charts are much easier than the graph.

Hope this helps.

Potatoehead (LOL, memories!  ),

Welcome! 

Thank you...we're so glad you like the site!

Sherry is exactly right...that chain is vitally important, because otherwise, you'll start losing stitches.
