Question
Is it possible to change yarn over and knit 2 tog-psso from knitting to crocheting?
Thanks, Nancy
Not really. You can create a hole where the yarn over is by chaining one and then skip a stitch. But what the combination of yo and k2 tog-psso is to form a slanted line or a cable with holes along it. This is almost impossible to achieve in crochet.
Go to www.lionbrand.com, and register if you haven't. It is free. There you can browse the stitch library for crochet stitches. You might find something that may help.
