The first way you can M1 is to with your right needle from the back of your work, pick up the strand between the last
stitch knitted and the next stitch. Place on left needle and knit by working the back loop of the stitch.
The second way shown (below) is the way Elizabeth Zimmermann recommends in her book Knitting Workshop.

| Here's how Mary makes the M1. A lot easier than |
|
| I do it!! Try this one out! |
| Pointing thumb down wrap around around it |
|
| from under yarn, then rotate towards you. |
| Bringing thumb up will make a complete |
|
| wrap around your thumb. |
| Slide your right hand needle |
|
| into the backwards loop you just made. |
| This picture is fuzzy but, shows what the |
|
| stitch looks like when slid onto needle. |

You can also M1, by knitting into the front and back of the same stitch as shown below.
| You can M1 by knitting into the |
|
| front of a stitch, leave it on the needle and |
| then without removing the stitch from the left |
|
| needle, Knit into the back of the same stitch. |
