Addi Lace Click Interchangeable Needle Set
Have all the needles you’ll ever need in one convenient carrying case! The addi Lace Click system provides 8 different sizes of addi Lace tips, five different lengths of our new, extremely pliable blue cord, and one connector piece which helps to either store stitches or combine your cords. The Click tips require no tools to change; simply insert the cord deep into the tip, twist and release. The tips will remain secure until you change them, thanks to the Click's revolutionary locking mechanism. The addi Click tips are nickel plated. Our nickel plating process is electro-static, which produces a smooth, rounded edge, where the tip and the cord "click" together.

I do not understand Row 2.
Row 2: K1, *k next st and yo tog tbl, k3; rep from * to end.
What does yo tog tbl, k3 mean?
You are knitting the k and the yo together through the back loop. I’ve updated the post to make it a little easier to understand, but it’s demonstrated very clearly in the video.
Thank you. Unfortunately, I have a problem with this computer and can not run the videos. The computer shut down as soon as I try to run one.
