Track rows and repeat cycles
Record the last completed row, not the row you intend to start. Keep the overall count separate from the position within a repeat.

Record the last completed row, not the row you intend to start. Keep the overall count separate from the position within a repeat.
Before you start
Have the complete instructions, a short list of unfamiliar actions and the materials for a trial. Separate the trial from the final project.
Try this example
After 19 completed rows in a four-row repeat, three rows of the fifth cycle are complete. Mark row 4 as next, and cross-check a physical marker before resuming.
Check your result
- Try the unfamiliar action before committing the main material. If the instructions leave a necessary choice unresolved, write down the missing information and resolve it first.
- A planning exercise is not a complete tested pattern. Project fit, construction and quantities still need their own instructions.
