Stitches Control

9.5 sts x 6.75 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Make 118 chain sts + 2 chain sts increase and work with the main pattern. In 34 cm = 23 rows (37 cm = 25 rows) 40 cm = 27 rows from the set-up row, divide your work in the middle and, at first, continue work on the left half of front. In 22 cm = 15 rows (25 cm = 17 rows) 28 cm = 19 rows from division of work, leave sts.

Then, continue making back on the right front. In 21 cm = 14 rows (24 cm = 16 rows) 27 cm = 18 rows from division of work, leave sts. Then, twist left half once, then, work on both parts as one-piece cloth, start with 1 WS row. In 89 cm = 60 rows (98 cm = 66 rows) 107 cm = 72 rows from the set-up row, finish your work. Make side seams, leave the upper 24 cm open from both sides for arm-holes.
