• O – Yarn over (накид)

• V – Knit 2 stitches together (2 петли провязать вместе лицевой)
• Λ – Purl 2 stitches together (2 петли провязать вместе изнаночной)
• ↓ – Slip 1, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over (1 протяжка – This is a left-leaning decrease, often called SKP or SSK)

Additional Instruction at the bottom:

• In every 10th-18th row, when knitting 2 together (Λ), pick up a stitch from the 3rd-20th (11-20th) row and knit it together with the 2 stitches on the needles (there will be 3 stitches on the needle).
