I have a dictionary of 3 lists, each containing 3 elements, and want to alter each element within each list separately, generating 9 new dictionaries as such:
d = 1:[a,b,c], 2:[e,f,g], 3:[h,i,j]
d1 = 1:[a+k,b,c], 2:[e,f,g], 3:[h,i,j]
d2 = 1:[a, b+k, c], 2:[e,f,g], 3:[h,i,j]
...
d9 = {1:[a,b,c], 2:[e,f,g], 3:[h,i,j+k]
Is there a way this can be done without having to hardcode each dictionary separately? Further on down the code, I will need to refer to the sets of lists separately (i.e. I will input [a,b,c+k], [d,e,f], [g,h,i] into some function to get a solution), but I am happy for the data not to be in dictionary form so long as I can still refer to their sets later!

You can use a list comprehension to iterate a number from 0 to 8 and generate dicts of lists using a dict comprehension that outputs list items with possibly k added based on the quotient and remainder of 3 of the number:
[k: [a + ('k' if n // 3 + 1 == k and n % 3 == i else '') for i, a in enumerate(l)] for k, l in d.items() for n in range(9)]
so that given:
d = 1:['a','b','c'], 2:['e','f','g'], 3:['h','i','j']
this returns:
[1: ['ak', 'b', 'c'], 2: ['e', 'f', 'g'], 3: ['h', 'i', 'j'],
1: ['a', 'bk', 'c'], 2: ['e', 'f', 'g'], 3: ['h', 'i', 'j'],
1: ['a', 'b', 'ck'], 2: ['e', 'f', 'g'], 3: ['h', 'i', 'j'],
1: ['a', 'b', 'c'], 2: ['ek', 'f', 'g'], 3: ['h', 'i', 'j'],
1: ['a', 'b', 'c'], 2: ['e', 'fk', 'g'], 3: ['h', 'i', 'j'],

1: ['a', 'b', 'c'], 2: ['e', 'f', 'g'], 3: ['hk', 'i', 'j'],
