tfl
Knittingthrough front loop
Description
An instruction to work the stitch through the front leg of the loop, the standard method for knitting unless otherwise specified.
Detailed explanation
Refers to “through front loop,” directing you to insert the needle into the stitch leg closest to you. This acts as the default knitting method for creating stitches that lie flat without twisting. Explicit use of tfl often clarifies instructions following twisted stitches or back-loop sequences.
