To perform a m1 k1 m1 in a row of knitting, start by making a "make one" (m1) stitch, which involves lifting the yarn between the stitches and knitting into it to create an extra stitch. Next, knit one stitch (k1) as usual. Finally, make another m1 in the same way as the first, lifting the yarn between the newly knitted stitch and the next stitch to create another extra stitch. This sequence adds two new stitches to your row.
knit one (probably referring to one stitch unless it says row after it)
to brioche knit .. cast on then .. you begin row 1 by k1 p1 across the row ending with k1 .. as a foundation row .. you need odd number of stitches and may have to add one stitch to pattern .. it wont hurt it .. row 2: p1 ," k1 below , p1 " repeat " -" across row end with k1 row 3 k1 ," p1 , k1 below" repeat " - " across row end with p1 repeat rows 2 and 3 to k1 below mean to actually grab both the stitch you are knitting and the stitch right below it together at the same time and knit them together .. the one below will actually drop off and become an elongated stitch.

The vast majority of knitting patterns include both knits and purls. The only exceptions that come to mind would be garter stitch in the flat and stockinette (or reverse stockinette) in the round. Perhaps you are thinking of ribbing, where knits and purls are alternated in a row that is repeated over and over again. The most common rib pattern is: Cast on an even number of stitches Row 1: K1, P1, repeat to end of row Repeat Row 1 to desired length of ribbing
Stocking Stitch (knit a row, purl a row, repeat)
Typically, one cable needle is needed to complete one row of a knitting pattern that involves cables.
A diamond-shaped knitting pattern is popular on sweaters and vests. The diamond pattern is made by knitting and purling, increasing on each row until you get to the mid-row on the diamond, then working the pattern in reverse to complete the diamond.
You knit 1, purl 1, then knit 1 again, before slipping that stitch off the needle. It all goes into one stitch.
Cast on. Put the original row of loops on the needle.
rnd is the abbreviation for round meaning one row
