Am I to k1, slip 1, k1, sl 1, k1, slip 1 thru the 18 stiches and k the last one (19th stitch).
OR am I to k1, slip 1 and the knit thru the last stitch?

You'll knit one stitch, slip

You'll knit one stitch, slip one stitch, knit one, slip one...and keep using that pattern until you get to the last stitch. Knit the last stitch. Hope that helps!
