BACK: Ch 70 (74, 78), pull up a loop in 2nd ch from hook, skip next ch,
pull up a loop in next st of ch, yo and work off all loops at one time,
* ch 1, pull up a loop in same space where last loop was pulled up, skip
next st of ch, pull up a loop in next st, yo and work off all loops at
one time, repeat from * across ch, ch 1, turn. 2nd ROW (right side):
Pull up a loop in ch 1 and in next st, yo and work off all loops at one
time, * ch 1, pull up a loop in same space where last loop was pulled
up, skip 1 st, pull up a loop in next st, yo and work off all loops at
one time (pattern st), repeat from * across row, ch 1, turn—34 (36, 38)

SHAPE ARMHOLES: 1st DEC ROW: sl st across 1st 5 sts (all sizes), ch 1,
pull up a loop in same space as last sl st, skip 1 st, pull up a loop in
next st, complete st, work in pattern to within last 6 sts (all sizes),
sl st in next st, ch 1, turn. 2nd DEC ROW: Skip the sl st, sl st in next
2 sts, ch 1, pull up a loop in same st, skip 1 st, pull up a loop in
next st, complete st, work 25 (27, 29) more patterns, sl st in next st,
ch 1, turn. NEXT ROW: Skip the sl st. Pull up a loop in next 2 sts,
complete st, then work 25 (27, 29) more patterns, sl st in next st, ch
1, turn. Repeat last 2 rows once but have 2 less patterns in dec row.
There will be 24 (26, 28) patterns. Work even in pattern until armholes
measure 7½ (8, 8¾) inches from 1st dec row ending on wrong side. SHAPE
SHOULDERS: Skip the ch 1, sl st across 1st 3 (5, 7) sts, ch 1, work 5
patterns (all sizes), sl st in next st, ch 1, turn. Work 3 (3, 4)
patterns, sl st in next st, cut yarn. Skip 18 sts (all sizes) of last
long row, attach yarn in next st, work 5 patterns (all sizes), sl st in
next st, ch 1, turn. NEXT ROW: Skip the sl st, sl st across next 4 (4,
2) sts, work 3 (3, 4) patterns, cut yarn. LEFT FRONT: Ch 42 (44, 46).
Work same as back until 2 inches less than back to underarm ending at

at end of row), yo and work off all loops, ch 1, turn. Work 3 rows even.
Repeat last 4 rows 6 times (all sizes). At the same time, when front
measures same length as back to underarm, shape armhole same as back.
When armhole measures same as back armhole, shape shoulder same as right
back shoulder, ending at shoulder edge, cut yarn.
RIGHT FRONT: Work same as left front, reversing shaping until armhole
measures same as back armhole ending at front edge, cut yarn, turn.
SHAPE SHOULDER: Attach yarn in 28th st, keeping continuity of pattern,
work 5 patterns (all sizes), sl st in next st, ch 1, turn. NEXT ROW:
Skip the sl st, sl st across next 4 (4, 2) sts, work 3 (3, 4) patterns,
cut yarn.
SLEEVES: Ch 42 (44, 46). Work 1st 6 rows same as back. 7th and 8th ROWS:

until sleeve measures 16 inches from beg, or length desired to underarm.

yarn. 2nd ROW: Attach yarn in 1st s c of corner of right front, pull up
a loop in each of the next 2 s c, yo and work off all loops at one time,
* ch 1, pull up a loop in last st, skip 1 st, pull up a loop in next st,
yo and work off all loops at one time, repeat from * across front to

left front in same manner. With wrong side of work facing, attach yarn
in s c at lapel shaping already worked in, and working around lapels and
collar, work 1 s c in each row at side of lapel, 1 s c in each st across
top of lapel, 1 s c in each row at side of collar, 1 s c in each st
across top of collar, 1 s c in each row of opposite side of collar, 1 s
c in each st across top of lapel, 1 s c in each row at side of lapel,
join to next s c, cut yarn, do not turn. Attach yarn in 1st s c and work
in pattern same as front edge, but do not skip 1 st at corner, join, cut
