What does Knit into front and back of each stitch mean?

you are basically doing an increase, creating two new stitches from one old one. Start your knit stitch by inserting your needle right to left and out the front of the stitch, wrap your yarn and bring your right needle back out with the new stitch on it, but don't drop the stitch on the left needle yet. now insert the right needle into the back of the stitch from left to right, wrap the yarn and now you may drop the stitch from the left needle.
