Hi Sana ..

Hi Sana ..
Today I decided to knit your sweater again. Because I really like it
  and with your clear instructions I found that I still don't know how to proceed. Now I'm in the 5th order, how is the fifth row wrong? And then which series repeats? I'm sorry, but I still don't get it. as you drew it so I understand the instructions. Please help and advice .. Thank you very much and now I look forward to your new video ..

Hi Veronika,

Hi Veronika,
For the 5th row it is necessary to knit all stitches between corners and work corners (yarn over, k2, yarn over). Happy knitting!
