Yarn Over Short Rows vs German Short Rows
Technically, there is only one difference between yarnover short row and German short row. German short rows are accomplished by pulling stitch and making double stitch.
First, make a turn. Slip the stitch, pull the working yarn upwards and to the back. This move will create double stitch.
It is an easy to substitution.
Instead making yarn over – make double stitch.
From my experience, German short rows are less fiddly. The end result looks the same in both ways. It is up to you which one to choose.
