IMPORTANT
AS THERE ARE NO DYE LOTS, WE RECOMMEND BUYING ENOUGH YARN AT ONE TIME TO COMPLETE EACH PROYECT. PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO HAND DYING, HANKS ARE NEVER THE SAME, KNITT WITH TWO HANKS IN ASSORTED ROWS, THIS WILL ASSURE AN OVERALL BLENDED EFFECT. FOR CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOW LABEL ON THE BALL.

1X1 RIBBING: (B) R S * K 1, P 1 * REPEAT FROM *. 2nd AND ALL FOLLOWING ROWS, WORK STS AS THEY APPEAR. STITCH PATTERN ( A): 1 ROW: *K1, P1; REP FROM * 2 AND ALL EVEN ROWS: PURL 3 ROW:* P1,K1; REP FROM * REP THESE 3 ROWS.

STAR STITCH: ( C ) SPECIAL ABBREVIATION: MAKE STAR (MS) = K3TOG LEAVING STS ON NEEDLE, YO, THEN KNIT SAME 3 STS TOGETHER AGAIN. K3TOG: KNIT 3 STS TOGETHER YO : YARN OVER NEEDLE 1 AND EVERY ALT ROW (WS): PURL 2 ROW (RS): *K1, * MS; K1; REP FROM * TO LAST ST 4 ROW: K3, MS; P1, MS; REP FROM* TO LAST 3 STS, K3. REPEAT THESE 4 ROWS.

AT THE SAME TIME, WORK 5 BUTTONHOLES EVERY 14 ROWS IN FRONT EDGE RIB, AS FOLLOWS: 1 ROW: 3 RIB, K2TOG, YO,2 RIB. 2 ROW: 7 RIB. WORK EVEN FOR 7 CM (2 3/4) AND START CHANGING 2 RIB TO STAR ST, AS FOLLOWS: 1 ROW (RS): 33 (34, 36) RIB, MS, K1. 3 ROW: 31(32, 34) RIB, MS, K3. CONTINUE CHANGING STS UNTIL YOU HAVE 30(31, 33) STAR STS AND 7 RIB. NOTE: WORK ARMHOLE AND NECKLINE AT THE SAME TIME. ARMHOLE: WHEN PIECE MEASURES 63 (64,65) CM ;24 3/4 (25 1/4,25 1/2) ,DEC AT ARMHOLE EDGE,1 TIME 3 STS; 1 TIME, 2 STS AND 3 TIMES , 1 ST . NECKLINE: AT THE SAME TIME,(RS)BIND OFF THE 7 RIB STS AND CHANGE NEXT 2 STAR STS TO REV ST - ST, WORK IN STAR ST, TO END OF ROW.CONTINUE CHANGING IN EVERY RS ROW, 2 STAR ST TO REV ST - ST. DEC 11(9,8) TIMES, 1 ST AT NECK EDGE = 11 (14,17) STS. WHEN FRONT MEASURES 85 (87,89) CM ; 33 1/2 (34 1/4,35) , FROM BEG, BIND OFF ALL STS.

WHEN PIECE MEASURES 44 (44.5, 45) CM; 17 1/4 (17 1/2, 17 3/4) FROM BEG, BIND OFF 1 TIME, 3 STS; 1 TIME, 2 STS; 3 TIMES, 2 STS; 10 TIMES, 1 ST = 8 (9,11) STS. WHEN SLEEVE MEASURES 62 (63, 64) CM; 24 1/4, 24 3/4, 25 1/4), BIND OFF ALL STS. WORK TWO.

COLLAR:
ARMHOLE: WHEN PIECE MEASURES 63 (64,65) CM ;24 3/4 (25 1/4,25 1/2) ,DEC AT BEG OF EACH ROW 1 TIME 3 STS; 1 TIME, 2 STS AND 3 TIMES , 1 ST = 49 (53,57) STS. AT THE SAME TIME, CHANGE THE 5 CENTRAL STS TO REV ST - ST. CONTINUE CHANGING EVERY 2 ND ROW, 2 STAR ST TO REV ST - ST AT EACH SIDE, UNTIL YOU HAVE 49(53,57) STS IN REV ST - ST. WHEN BACK MEASURES 85(87,89) CM ;33 1/2 (34 1/4,35) , FROM BEG, BIND OFF ALL STS. CAST ON 34 (36, 38) STS, WORK IN 1X1 RIB, INC 3 STS AT BEG OF EACH ROW UNTIL YOU HAVE 118 (120,122) STS. WORK 8 ROWS MORE AND BIND OFF ALL STS.
