Hi Christine, We’re sorry we don’t have Lindsay translated into French, but in case it helps, here is the line of instructions you asked about, spelled out and with a translation: work in established slip stitch pattern to second marker; travailler selon un motif de points coulés établi jusqu’au deuxième marqueur.

We’re also hoping that you can get help at a local yarn shop, where they probably have experience working with English patterns. Hope that helps and thank you for your interest in Lindsay!

Hi there,
I sometime do knitting and crochet pattern translation to Chinese. I design pattern and also teach knitting and crochet online and in person as well. If you still look for translation, please let me know.

Hi Šárka,

Hi there! I would like to offer you translation of your patterns in Czech. I’m an experienced knitter and a beginning designer as well. There is a big knitting community in Czech Republic and a lot of Czech knitters still don’t understand English.

Hi Vivian,
It means that you purl the stitch. Front means the stitches for the left front, and at this point you only have one. The markers separate the i-cord, front, sleeve, back, sleeve, front, and i-cord stitches. Hope that helps! If you have more questions, please email us at knit@cocoknits.com.
