    The sl 1 ktwise means that you are slipping a stitch from the left hand needle to the right handle needle just the way you would knit it. So you place the tip of your right hand needle in the stitch as if you are going to knit and slip it off the left hand needle onto the right. You are just basically moving the stitch from one needle to the other. that help?

    Let's see, I think what you are describing is right. Once you start working the short rows on each side it looks kind of like a fish tail. Narrower in the middle with points forming on either side. You are doing approximately 7 rows for each row that you knit all the way across. These "extra" rows are what causes it to curl. It should start to curl after a couple inches of work. It will start to look like a circular stairway, if that helps!

    I hope I'm helping!
