KRL

Knitting

Knit right loop

Description

A right-leaning increase technique created by knitting into the right loop of the stitch located one row below the next stitch on the needle.

Detailed explanation

KRL, often referred to as a Right Lifted Increase (RLI), is favored for its invisibility and seamless integration into stockinette stitch. By working into the stitch from the previous row, this method avoids the small holes sometimes associated with other increases. It creates a smooth rightward slant, making it an excellent choice for mirrored shaping in raglan sweaters or sock toes.
