Yes, a YO will always increase your stitches. If you are doing a YO for decorative purposes only then you have to pair it with a decrease to keep your stitch count even. So, your pattern might be *k2, YO, k2tog* or something like that.

The one question I have is: when you do the YO, won't that increase your stiches? Like, the next row will have more stitches than the last? So if you are knitting, say, a dishcloth (that is square) why would you need to increase? How do you keep, say, forty stitches on your needles while featuring a YO?

Thank you. That was such a big help. And it saved me a trip to get help from the ladies at the yarn store. I think they are sick of seeing me. lol!
