yarn over

Description

YO refers to a yarn over, a knitting and crochet technique used to create an extra stitch or a decorative eyelet hole.

Detailed explanation

A yarn over is a fundamental maneuver used to increase the stitch count or create an intentional hole in the fabric, commonly found in lace patterns. It involves wrapping the working yarn around the needle or hook without working into an existing stitch. This creates a loose loop that becomes a new stitch in the following row or round.
