Hi Yvette,


Those are dashes indicating there is nothing need to be done and the colons are just to separate the sizes. If your size is fallen into the dashes area then you don't need to do anything. Just skip to the next instruction. whatever number of stitches you have on your needle is what you should end up with.


Thanks for visiting and questioning. Have a great knitting day!
