Hello,
I am looking for help translating some Russian knitting symbols into English.
Please find the website with the knitting pattern here:
(https://www.knittingkingdom.com/roses-lace-pattern-intricate-knitting-stitch-2/)
Could someone please tell me what:
1). a “z” means in English
2). a “1/3” means in English (k3tog on right side, p3tog on wrong side?)
3). a triangle means in English (p2tog?)
4). a dot means in English
5). an “x” with a vertical line in the center is in English
6). three vertical slashes “///” or “\\\” means in English
Thank you so much!
Please find my intrepretation in my comment below. You’re also welcome to check out my project notes on Ravelry https://www.ravelry.com/projects/Alanii/interpreting-russian.

Hi
Beautiful pattern. Unfortunately, I can’t read all of it as I can’t read the language nor type it into Google translate. Can anyone help me and translate I and Z to English?
Thank you.
Here’s my own intrepretation:
. knit
o yarn over
/ k2tog
\ ssk
| knit through the back loop
Z slip 1 knitwise
1/3 (k, yo, k) in 1 stitch
∆ s2tog-k1-ps2sso (middle stitch in the front)
/|\ s1-k2tog-psso (right stitch in the front and middle in the back)
/// k3tog
\\\ sssk
‘>|< (k, yo, k) in k3tog
4A s2tog-ssk-p2sso (knit 4 st together with the second stitch in the front)
5A s3tog-ssk-p3sso (knit 5 st together with middle stitch in the front)
