slwyf- slip with yarn in front
yo- yarn over

Rows 1-6: k all stitches
Row 7: k all stitches but do not turn your work at the end of this row. Instead, rotate your work 90 degrees to the right (what was the left edge is now facing up). Pick up and knit three stitches along this edge (one for each garter ridge bump- just do your best, it doesn't have to be perfect). Rotate your tab 90 degrees to the right again (what was your cast on edge is now facing up). Pick up and knit three stitches along this edge. That's it! You did it!
