work last st in A.1, A.1 (= 20 sts) 21-24-26-27 times in width, 4 band sts in garter st. REMEMBER THE

KNITTING TENSION Work the 4 band sts in garter st until finished measurements. When entire A.1 has been
worked 1 time vertically, there are 261-297-321-333 sts on needle. Repeat A.X 1 more time vertically.

(= 7 sts), 4 band sts in garter st. When A.2-A.4 have been worked 1 time vertically, continue with A.5 inside
band sts in each side. NOTE: On 7th row work last st before band sts K, and on 10th row inc 2-1-2-1 sts =
