Bind Off (Purl)

How to Bind Off

Appearance in pattern - BO

Purl the first two stitches on the left knitting needle. Insert the tip of the left knitting needle into the first stitch worked on the right knitting needle. With the left knitting needle, lift the first stitch over the second stitch and off the right knitting needle. Purl the next stitch and repeat. When one stitch remains on the right knitting needle, cut the yarn and draw the tail through the last stitch to fasten off.
