Daisy Stitch using Knit Stitches

[NOTE: There are many tutorials illustrating Daisy stitch using purl sts. However, I much prefer Daisy Stitch worked using knit stitches. This method is used in the Daisy Lady and Daisy Girl patterns. It is referred to as the 3k3 stitch.]

1. Insert right hand needle into 3 sts as if to k3tog.

2. WRAP YARN AS IF TO KNIT.

3. DRAW YARN THROUGH BUT LEAVE THE STITCHES ON YOUR LEFT HAND NEEDLE.

4. YARN OVER.

5. INSERT YARN INTO THE SAME 3 STITCHES.

6. K3TOG
