The instructions I refer to are the ones at <http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/Enumitem>. The relevant part is: "Start your list, break it to insert some text, then start the list again. This will restart the numbering a 1. Place the cursor after the 1., Select Insert>Short Title and put start=x in the red box, where x is the number you wish to restart the list at. Instead of start=x you can just type resume and it will resume the numbering." When I tried this, Insert > Short Title was grayed out. I googled the problem, which led me to Guenter's patch.
