    Ow that makes sense... so what is it talking about in the begining about the edging? that confuses me also
    thanks for explaining...

    I"m a lefty, and was taught to knit as a right handed one. . . it gets easier the more I do it.

    Which part of the beginning?

    On the one row, you cast on a stitch, then immediately bind it off- that forms the picot.

    On the other row, you slip the first stitch (that pulls the picot more to a point), then knit one stitch - then yarn over (this forms the lacy, open portion) and then knit the next 2 stitches together (so you end up with the same amount of stitches in the row)
