Leaf Stitch Knitting Pattern

How to knit Leaf Stitch:

Work with multiple of 12 stitches + 5 + 2 edge stitches.

Cast on 19 sts (12 + 5 + 2 edge sts) and work according to chart.

The chart shows only Right Side Rows.

On WS rows, work sts as they appear and yo's P.

The patt rep = 12 sts wide.

Begin with 1 edge st, work patt rep throughout, end with 5 sts after patt and 1 edge st.

The number of stitches varies within 24 rows of pattern repeat.
