The First Leg, Part Two

Forming the V on the second row.

The first part of the V is worked in much the same way as it was on the first row, only now the needle is going behind the stitch above from left to right instead of from right to left. Pull the yarn through.

Some people find it much easier to work the left-to-right rows after turning the work 90 degrees so that you're knitting up rather than across the work. Try it and see what works best for you.
