Knitting abbreviation - KRL

Knitting abbreviation Krl stands for knit right loop. It is a left-leaning single stitch increase. It's tidy and easy to make.

Knit up to the stitch you are increasing, with the right-hand needle pick up the stitch on the row below inserting the needle from the back to the front, place it on the left-hand needle and knit through the front loop.

If you find this increase leaves a hole, knit the lifted stitch through the back loop to twist the stitch and eliminate the gap.
