Isela Phelps' "Loom Knitting Primer"

I to tried many ways and finally did it this way. I needed my loom empty! Move the loop on peg 1 to peg 2, the loop on peg 3 to peg 4, continue around the loom , moving loops on odd numbered pegs to the adjacent even number pegs. e-wrap all pegs, passing the yarn behind the empty pegs (on the inside of the loom). Knit off all pegs. Then I did the gathered method and weave in the ends. Came out great. I don't know if I want to try any more patterns in her book!

I have a question about Isela Phelps' "Loom Knitting Primer". I can't find a way to get the answer.

"Loom Knitter Primer" is a book written by Isela Phelps. The project I am working on is "Simple Hat", page 38. The instructions to shape the crown of the hat, do not make sense. If I have 36 pegs in the loom and move every third stitch over one space to the right I cannot possibly end up with 24 pegs with 2 loops and 12 empty pegs. What am I doing wrong?
