ASYMMETRY PATTERNS
NOT SHOWN IN PATTERN: Create an 'edge stitch - a 'chain edge' by slipping the first st purl-wise, and knitting (or purling) the last stitch of each row. You need to add 2 additional sts to the pattern st count. This makes a neater edge and it is easier to sew seams.
Shown with a cast-on count of 3 stitches.
