    4. s1 means slip the first stitch it makes for a smoother edge

  5. What is S1 stand for? I thought Slip 1, but you would be minus a stitch in every row.

    1. It is slip one stitch, a slip stitch does not decrease the amount of stitches, so you will not be decreasing in stitches, you are simply moving the stitch from the left needle to the right needle without working it, it just makes a nice consistent edge.
