AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH

I just ripped out the Spiderweb Caplet for the 5th time. [desperate, whiny, pleading voice...] If ANYONE can help me with this, please do... because right now, I've got a disease, and the only cure is more cowbell knitting advice.

"sl2 pwise, k2tog, pass 2 slipped sts over, k1 without dropping st off needle, yo, p1 without dropping st off needle, yo, k1 without dropping st off needle, yo, p1 and drop st off needle"

It's the YO's that are screwing me up. Each of those lace repeats should take 5 stitches, but I am winding up with 7 at the end instead of 5.

If anyone has made this or knows someone who has - PLEASE HELP!

Trying to leave you a comment, I was feeling a little AARRGH myself. Anyway, I'm no brainiack when it comes to lace knitting, but the only way it makes sense to me is if, after you yarn over, you pull that YO through the stitch you just made. Then you come out with five. Good luck!
