On Peg 2, in same two stitches, true knit both sts together removing old sts from peg and placing new st on Peg 2. Purl both stitches together leaving old stitches on Peg 2 and place new purl stitch on Peg 1. P2tog, k2tog in same st: Working in pairs, move st from Peg 1 to Peg 2. In this pattern the Edelweiss stitch pattern works 2 stitches together more than once on the same peg to create the stitch. Ewrap is not recommended for this project. Tight knitters may be able to use the true knit stitch throughout the pattern.
Be sure to work loosely to achieve the correct gauge. For Rows 2 & 4 of the Edelweiss stitch pattern use the true knit stitch when working the K2tog. Uwrap knit stitches are used for all stitches denoted as knit or K. For right handed knitters work from right to left (clockwise) left handed knitters should work in the opposite direction (counter clockwise).
