WRN?

I was casting on my sock...cast on 56 stitches, join being careful not to twist (sound familiar).  So I am ready to get started, right? *Wrn to make 1---huh?  I flip the page to check for abbreviations/stitch definitions,  none to be found.  This happened to be during my lunch hour today and I was with a fellow knitter....do you know what a wrn is, I inquired? She had never heard of this stitch either.  Very odd.  I checked KnitSpeak when I got home,  wrn stands for wool round needle, this is the British version of a YO.  Mystery solved....I can now commence with my cuff.  Happy Knitting Everyone!

Well, it's true. You learn something new everyday. Never would have guessed that one.

Thank you! I just came across this myself and went looking for an answer!
