What does sl1 mean in knitting?

In knitting, sl1 means to slip one stitch. To do this simply slip the stitch from the left hand needle to the right without knitting it. Stitches can either be slipped purlwise or knitwise. If slipped purlwise, the stitch will not twist but if slipped knitwise it will twist. Therefore, if the pattern does not specify which way to slip the stitch, it is best to slip purlwise. See the related link for a diagram showing how to slip stitches.

When knitting after you have cast on when it comes time to knit the slip knot do you knit it or does it stay on your left needle Or do you knit it over to the right needle?

When you reach the slip knot, knit it just like all of the other stitches, throwing it off at the end just like the other stitches. When you have knit the slip knot, all of the stitches should be on the right needle, and the left needle should be completely free*.*There may be some exceptions to this rule, as in circular knitting, but this will not be addressed until you are an advanced knitter, and you don't have to worry about that right now.

How do you knit an I- cord?

Using a pair of double pointed needles, cast on 4 stitches. Instead of turning and knitting back the other direction, slide all four stitches to other opposite end of the needle and knit into the first stitch that you cast on. Knit the rest of the stitches on the needle. Slide them down to the opposite end and repeat. You are knitting in the round on a very small scale. Bind off as you would in the round. My aunt makes custom shoelaces by knitting I-Cord with number 10 crochet thread. -smcm
