Hi! I have had trouble with this particular pattern. I am afraid there=92s a mistake in it. It is a baby blanket/afghan. starts with co of 4 sts k 3 rows, row 4, k1 (k in to front and back of next st 2 times k1(. Now I have 6 sts on needle. row 5, sl1 k 2, yo, k to end. Keep doing tis till piece is as wide as you like it to be. to decrease and this is where I have a problem and I hope someone can help me on this one. To begin decreasing, sl1, k2, k2 tog, k to end of row. Keep going till you have 4 sts on needle. binbind off. Now where is the problem here? When I do the decrease, I don=92t see the same holes like I do when I do the increasing on my start up. I don=92t quite understand it. thanks for the help. Portia

Yep, you're decreasing but without the eyelets. So for the dec rows change it to sl 1, k1, k2tog, YO, k2tog, knit to the end. You need 2 decs or the YO will keep the stitch number the same.
