Knitting Instructions puzzle

I read through most patterns before starting. I have one that makes knitted diamonds. The instructions are to cast on in multiples of 8. So far no problem The first row is pretty straight forward. P1 K7 and we are still using the multiples of 8 However for the next seven rows, none of the pattern stitches per row add up to 8. For example, one row reads K1* P2, K5, repeat from * to the end of the row. That doesn't seem logical as you would end up with odd ends. Am I correct in thinking I can ignore the *, keeping everything in multiples of 8?
