Notes

Gotta love a simple pattern that turns out to look like a million dollar.

Would have love to finished this using the same colorway but alas! Ran out of the Panda Cotton. So had to improvise with my stash.

Mods:
Skipped the CO on a separate needle. Instead:
On the For all sizes EXCEPT XL AND XXL part,

  • At the 4th repeat, stopped at row 4 (Next Row: as Row 4)
  • using cable CO, CO 43 sts on WS
  • turn to RS, join by slipping 1 st on left needle to right needle purlwise, pass 2nd st on right needle over the slipped st
  • k to 4th marker, sm, p to end, and p across cable CO
  • p to marker ‘A’, switch to different color marker to mark the beg of round
  • proceed to First full Round: k all in pattern

Continue to follow pattern till Body section

  • inc every 13th row till a total of 216 sts
  • work wave pattern 4x just like neckline
