make one left purlwise

Description

A left-leaning increase worked on the purl side by lifting the horizontal strand between stitches from front to back.

Detailed explanation

Make One Left Purlwise is an increase used on the wrong side of the fabric to create a leftward slant. It acts as the purl-side counterpart to the M1L and is essential when shaping occurs on purl rows. By lifting the bar between stitches and twisting it, this method adds a stitch seamlessly without leaving a hole.
