sts. and put on safety pin for right shoulder. Bind off 26 sts. for

k. these 6 sts. very loosely to form border. Continue (c), adding 1 st.
at neck end each row between plain part and border, for 6 border ribs.
Work (c) without adding for 20 more rows (which is 10 border ribs). Then
to form front of armhole add 1 st. each row on opposite end of needle
for 6 times, also twice add 1 st. at neck end every other border rib.
Continue (c), adding 1 st. each border rib at neck end for 8 border
