Notes

Re-written to be able to work from bottom-up and for a scoop neck

Well, after finishing 15”, I got to the point where you take out the provisional cast on. I messed it up terribly - so I frogged the entire thing and re-wrote the directions from bottom-up

Modifications - Grecian Goddess:

Size 9 needles - CO 132 st - k2, p2 for 2”

Size 10 needles - starting with rnd 4, work mesh pattern until piece measures 18”; end with rnd 1

Size 9 needles - k2, p2 for appr 4” - try on at this point. If the waist is empire, on next round, BO last 2 st (pm), Front - BO 2, (1 st on needle) work 61 st, BO 2, Back - BO 2, (1 st on needle) work 61 st; place front stitches on a holder

Work back in ribbing pattern until piece measures 7.5” ending with WS. On RS, work 16 st, BO 31 st, (1 st on needle) work 15. Place top of shoulder stitches on a holder

With front stitches, work for 1” in ribbing pattern (end on WS)

(RS) Work 20 st, BO 22, (1 st on needle) work 19 st

Attach new ball, so that both sides can be worked at the same time, on the row coming back

Dec 1 at each neck edge (ssk or k2tog as appropriate) on every row until there are 16 st on each side. Work until piece measures 7.5” from beginning of armhole. Place top of shoulder stitches on a holder

Use a 3 needle bind off to bind off shoulders
