Knitting

right-lifted increase

Description

A right-leaning, nearly invisible knitting increase created by lifting the right leg of the stitch from the row below and knitting it.

Detailed explanation

The Right Lifted Increase is a discreet method for adding stitches to knitting without creating holes or visible bumps. By lifting the right leg of the stitch directly below the next stitch on the needle, it integrates smoothly into the fabric with a directional lean to the right. This technique is often used in pairs with the Left Lifted Increase (LLI) for symmetrical shaping on garments like raglan sweaters or sock toes.
