M1R
KnittingIncrease slanting to the right
Description
M1R (Make 1 Right) is a directional knitting increase that creates a new stitch slanting to the right.
Detailed explanation
This method is essential for shaping garments, such as widening sleeves or waistlines, as it adds stitches invisibly. By lifting the strand between existing stitches and knitting it with a twist, the new stitch leans to the right without leaving a hole. It functions as the mirror image of the M1L (Make 1 Left) increase.
