leaf branch knit in rows
p1 tbl and k1 tbl into the yo means M1R and M1L into the yo. I could not figure out how to put the right symbols in these places. M1R or M1L and slip yo? This would not make so much sense.
For the M1R change the direction of the yo strand and knit it as you would normally do with the strand between the stitches from the row below. For the M1R do a k1 tbl with the yo …

This creates a slightly smaller hole as if it was just k1 into the yo, but it creates a little hole. I like the look of this the most. If there were no yo but just M1R and M1L, there would be no hole at all.
Also the 1/1 LT in row 4 and the first 1/1 RT in row 8 are not done just with ktbl. I just could not find the symbol. In row 4 it is cross the stitches, k1 tbl, k1 and in row 8 it is cross the stitches, k1, k1 tbl. This creates a neater leaf in my opinion.
Shown with a cast-on count of 22 stitches.
