In knitting, a "yo," or yarn over, is a technique used to create an additional stitch and increase the number of stitches on the needle. It involves bringing the yarn over the needle from back to front before the next stitch is knitted. This creates a small hole in the fabric, which can add decorative elements or serve a functional purpose in lace knitting. Yarn overs are often used in various stitch patterns and designs.
