Updated: 09May2011

Please look at the schematic drawing on page 61.

Each knitted piece (front and back) measures as follows BEFORE the Lower edge border is added:

X-Small:   16″ wide x 21″ long
Small:      18″ wide x 21.5″ long
Medium:   20″ wide x 22″ long
Large:      22″ wide x 22.5″ long
1X:           24″ wide x 23″ long
2X:           26″ wide x 24″ long
3X:           28″ wide x 24.5″ long

All sizes are measured along the left edge (end of RS rows) to determine garment width, this will become the lower edge along which the border will be picked up. If you have reached the specified number of sts and do not have the measurement, continue to increase at both ends until you reach the measurement. This is very important, especially if the gauge is off or you have substituted yarn as the lower edge will not be wide enough.

Here is a clarification –

Sizes X-Small, Small, Medium and Large
Work pattern and increase as written until the left edge (end of RS rows) reaches the specified measurement for width, this will become the lower edge. Then begin to work kfb at beg and k2tog at the end of RS rows until the right side edge (beg of RS rows) reaches the specified measurement for length. This edge is longer than the lower edge. Dec and bind off as written, bound-off row will become neck and shoulder edge.

Sizes 1X, 2X and 3X
Work pattern and increase as written until the right edge (beg of RS rows) reaches the specified measurement for length, this will become the side edge. Begin to k2tog at beg of RS rows (neck and shoulder edge) and cont to inc at end of RS rows (lower edge) until lower edge reaches the specified measurement for width. This edge is longer than the side edge. Bind off 2 sts at beg of WS rows and cont to dec at beg RS rows until 3 sts rem. Bind off. This bound-off edge will become the other side edge.

Finishing
Block pieces lightly into shape, pinning to measurements. Complete pattern as written.
