Hi all I’m making this sweater, and I’m at the point where row 4 ends. It says these 4 rows establish pattern.
For the next row do I go back to row 1 ??
If so, I’m constantly increasing stitches so eventually the instructions will leave me with left over stitches ???
Pattern : http://www.patonsyarns.com/pattern.php?PID=4281
Copied :
The instructions are written for smallest size. If changes are necessary for larger sizes, the instructions will be written thus: ( ).
With smaller needles cast on 40 (48- 60-84-100) sts.
1st row: (RS). *K2. P2. Rep from * to end of row.
Rep last row until work from beg measures 2½ ins [6 cm] ending on a 2nd row and inc 9 (9-5-5-5) sts evenly across last row. 49 (57-65-89-105) sts.
Place a marker at each end of row.
Change to larger needles and proceed in pat as follows:
1st row: (RS). (P2. K2) 1 (2-3-6-8) time(s). P2. (K2. P2) 3 times. Work 1st row of Chart, reading row from right to left. P2. (K2. P2) 3 times. (K2. P2) 1 (2-3-6-8) time(s).
2nd row: (K2. P2) 1 (2-3-6-8) time(s). K2. (P2. K2) 3 times. Work 2nd row of Chart, reading row from left to right. K2. (P2. K2) 3 times. (P2. K2) 1 (2-3- 6-8) time(s).
3rd row: Inc 1 st in first st. K1. P2. (K2. P2) 0 (1-2-5-7) time(s). P2. (C2B. P2) 3 times. Work 3rd row of Chart. P2. (C2B. P2) 3 times. (P2. K2) 0 (1-2- 5-7) time(s). P2. K1. Inc 1 st in last st. 51 (59-67-91-107) sts.
4th row: Inc 1 st in first st. (P2. K2) 1 (2-3-6-8) time(s). K2. (P2. K2) 3 times. Work 4th row of Chart. K2. (P2. K2) 3 times. (K2. P2) 1 (2-3-6-8) time(s). Inc 1 st in last st. 53 (61-69- 93-109) sts.
These 4 rows establish pat. Chart is now in position.
Cont in pat as established, keeping cont of Chart, inc 1 st at each end of needle on next 0 (0-3-3-5) rows, then following alt rows 2 (3-4-11-15) times, taking inc sts into pat and ending with RS facing for next row. 57 (69-83-121- 149) sts.
