92 ( 100 :116: 126 :146: 158 ) sts for neck
and 10 sts for steek. Cast off all sts.
TO MAKE UP
Join sleeve and body sts at underarm using
Kitchener stitch or three-needle cast-off.
Using a 4mm crochet hook and yarn D,
work a crochet chain vertically up each
edge of the steek stitches, working the
chain into half the edge st and half the
s te e k s t at e a c h e d ge (w it h R S of t h e work
facing you). Using sharp scissors, cut
through the centre of the steek from
bottom to top. The fabric will automatically
fold to the inside.
With RS facing, using long 3mm circular
needles and yarn D, pick up evenly 3 sts for
every 4 rows up right front edge, 1 st for
every stitch around neck edge and 3 sts for
every 4 rows down left front edge. Turn
you r work s o t h at t h e WS i s fa c i n g you.
Now work an applied i-cord cast-off as
folls: Using the cable cast-on method, cast
on 3 sts onto your LH needle. *Knit 2 of
these new cast-on sts onto the RH needle,
then slip the next st onto the RH needle,
k n it t h e n e x t s t f rom you r L H n e e d l e onto
your RH needle and then pass the slipped st
over it. Slide the 3 rem sts back to the LH
needle and repeat from * until you have
only 3 sts left. Slip these 3 sts back to the LH
needle and knit all three of them together
through the back loops.Block garment gently to measurements,
following any yarn care instructions on the
ball band.BUTTON LOOP (optional)
Using a 4mm crochet hook and yarn D,
make a chain of 8 sts, working the last st
into the first st to make a loop. Sew to right
side of neck for button loop. Sew button to
left side of neck opposite button loop.CHART
