​How To Make Shorten Rows

Shorten Rows With Yarn Overs

In the next right side row knit this yarn over and next st together as knit st.

Shorten Rows With Stitch Winding

As in the previous method, knit your work with stockinette stitch until you need to turn you work. Then, slip knit st and transfer it to the right-hand needle. Throw working yarn behind this st and return it to the previous needle. Turn your work again. You'll get stitch with winding. Throw the yarn one more time and finish the row. Knit one more stripe, catch the st through front from bottom with right-hand needle from right side and make yarn over. This is made on the right side.

In the place, where the turn should be, slip the st on the opposite needle from wrong side. Take the yarn from yourselves and return the link to its place. Turn your work and continue knitting. When you come to the stitch winding, turn it, but before doing this, transfer the yarn over to the right-hand needle. Return the yarn over and insert the right-hand needle through back loop, knitting with purls.
