LEFT FRONT: Cast on 33 sts. Knit 6 rows Garter st. =7th row:= *K5. Inc. 1. st. in next st. K5. Repeat from * to end of row. 36 sts. on needle. Proceed:-
=1st row:= K8. P2. K5. P2. K8. P2. K9. =2nd row:= K4. P5. K2. P8. K2. P5. K2. P7. K1. =3rd row:= K8. P2. Cross. P2. K8. P2. Cross. K4. =4th row:= K4. P2. w.r.n. P2. K2. P8. K2. P2. w.r.n. P2. K2. P7. K1. =5th row:= K8. P2. K2. Wl. fwd. Slip the w.r.n. of previous row purl ways. K2. P2. K8. P2. K2. Wl. fwd. Slip the w.r.n. of previous row purl ways. K6. =6th row:= K4. P2. Purl the 2 Wl. fwds. tog. P2. K2. P8. K2. P2. Purl the 2 Wl. fwds. tog. P2. K2. P7. K1. These 6 rows complete one pattern. Keeping continuity of pattern continue to correspond to Right Front, omitting buttonhole, and being careful to have all shapings for opposite side.
BACK: Cast on 66 sts. Knit 6 rows Garter st. =7th row:= *K5. Inc. 1. st. in next st. Repeat from * to last 6 sts. K6. 76 sts. on needle. Proceed:-
=1st row:= K4. (K4. P2. K5. P2. K4) 4 times. K4. =2nd row:= K1. P3. (P4. K2. P5. K2. P4) 4 times. P3. K1. =3rd row:= K4. (K4. P2. Cross. P2. K4) 4 times. K4. =4th row:= K1. P3. (P4. K2. P2. w.r.n.

P4) 4 times. P3. K1. These 6 rows complete one pattern. Continue even in pattern until work measures 6-1/2 ins. from beginning.
=To shape armholes:= With right side of work facing, keeping continuity of pattern, cast off 3 sts. beginning next 2 rows, then dec. 1. st. each end of needle next and every alternate row 4 times. 62 sts. on needle. Continue even in pattern until armhole from first shaping measures 3 ins. =(=_6 mos.--3-1/2 ins._=)= =(=_9 mos.--3-1/2 ins._=)=.
=To shape shoulders:= Cast off 8 sts, beginning next 4 rows. 5th row: *K1. K2tog. K2. Repeat from * to end of row. Cast off.
