It goes like this:
Sweater sizes: The Cove cardigan is designed with a positive ease of
approx. 4-6 inches. Circumference is measured with sweater buttoned at
chest.
2/3 (sweater 26.5 inch chest circumference)
4/5 (sweater 28 inch chest circumference)
6/7 (sweater 29.5 inch chest circumference)
8/9 (sweater 31 inch chest circumference)
10/11 (sweater 32.5 inch chest circumference)
Starting with the U.S. 8 (32” circular needle), cast on as follows:
Cast on: 17 (17, 18, 18, 19) place marker
Cast on: 10 (10, 10, 10, 10) place marker
Cast on: 22 (24, 24, 26, 26) place maker
Cast on: 10 (10, 10, 10, 10) place a maker
Cast on: 5 (5, 6, 6, 7)
(64, 66, 68, 70, 72 sts)
This pattern is for a child’s cardigan. My project is intended for a 4/5 sweater. My problem is that I don’t know where to place the markers. I think the number of stitches I should cast on is 66 but I don’t know what to make of the marker placement instructions. Any help is appreciated!
