Boobalicious:

the photo of the back in the book (tiny photo) does not match up with pattern instructions. I contacted Mandy Moore the editor and she said to follow the instructions as written; the photo of the back was wrong, it was an earlier version. So the back is nearly all seed stitch but it is a very ingenious and interesting design.

page 97 - Panel Shaping, Part 1 (note deleted text below)

Row 4 RS: K1, m1, work in Seed stitch to marker, m1, slip

marker, k to 2 sts before marker, ssk, k2tog, work in seed stitch

to 2 sts before marker ssk, k2tog, k to 2 sts before marker..

(the last “2 sts before” should be crossed out)

page 98 - Right armhole and neckline shaping:

Replace held sts on needle with RS facing, rejoin yarn.

Next Row RS: K2tog, work to last 2 sts in Seed Stitch, ssk.

Next Row WS: Work all sts in Seed Stitch.

Repeat these 2 rows 24, 5, 6 times more. 35 sts rem.

Next Row RS: K2tog, work in Seed Stitch to end.
Next Row WS: Work all sts in Seed Stitch.
Repeat these 2 rows 9 times more. 25 sts rem.
Next Row RS: K2tog, work in Seed Stitch to end.

Work 3 rows in Seed Stitch.

Repeat these 4 rows 4 times more. 20 sts rem.

I’m going to try working this in the round, as one piece up to the armholes

i might try knitting the back in stockinette, leaving the seed stitch for the top panel only (like the incorrect picture)

CO 170 sts for front, 170 sts for back

ok

so very confused

am going to try just knitting two front panels, in the round,complete with panel shaping

11-13-2016

to make the body longer, after the seed stitch border

i added 10 rows with the stockinette/seed stitch panels - no shaping
