Knittingslip and bind
Description
A knitting technique where a stitch is slipped and then passed over a worked stitch to decrease the count or bind off.
Detailed explanation
This term refers to slipping a stitch from the left needle to the right without working it, followed by lifting that slipped stitch over a subsequent worked stitch. The maneuver creates a decrease comparable to ‘psso’ (pass slipped stitch over) or is used during bind-off sequences to secure the edge.
