OK, i get it is not 9 rows down,  but 6 from the 4th row to the 9th row, making it a 6 row jump to pick up 1 sts -- then do this 3 times?? Does this mean pick up another sts from below and also one more time -- then knit 7sts and repeat pick up sts?  Looks wider for me -- maybe because I  knitted into the picked up sts 3 times making an increase instead of knitting the next 3 sts together with the pick up sts.  Hummmmm, I think i am answering my own questions we'll see.  back to knitting.

I think you're on the right track. I answered in your other post. Don't increase, you're just making a fold or tuck in the knit fabric.You're connecting the stitch further down to the stitch currently on the needle by knitting the 2 together.
