Hey, I have a question about row 2. I'm a bit new to knitting, so I'm probably missing something completely obvious, but I've tried this a few times now and every time I get to the end of my row right after the last k11 in row 2. There is still the m1, k1, but there's not another stitch to make one with.. halp!
