I am knitting a cardigan which is Sirdar 3009
I have done the bonnet and got to the armhole shaping on the back and I start off keeping the pattern correct then it goes off course
The pattern is as follows
Row 1: Knit
Row 2: and every alt row, P5, K1,P9, rep from to last 6 sts, K1, P5
Row 3: K9, *K2tog, yfwd, K8, rep from * to last 2 sts K2
Row 5: K8, *K2tog, yfwd, K1,yfwd, S1,K1,psso, K5, rep from * to last 3 sts, K3
Row 7: K9, K2tog, yfwd, K8, rep from * to last 2 sts K2
Row 9: Knit
Row 10: P5, K1,P9, rep from * to last 6 sts K1,P5
I finished the cardigan on Row 10 of the pattern
And cast off the first 2 sts on Row 1, and then cast off 2 sts on Row 2, so now have 47 stitches
I will now be on row 3 and I have to decrease 1st at each end of next and every following alt row until I have 41 stitches
Could you please help me how to decrease the stitches while keeping the pattern correct x
