I have a pattern the tells me to cast on three stiches at the end of a knit row....I am stumped. Can you help me? Thanks in advance, Peni

To cast onto an established row, you begin to knit the lfirst stitch, but instead of slipping the old stitch off, you instead take the new stitch (on the left needle) and slip it back onto the right. You would do this 3 times, and then begin to knit normally. I hope this helps!
