Question
jessicau
Hi everyone!
I'm having some trouble understanding a pattern, and I hope someone can help me.
I'm currently working on a sleeveless turtleneck sweater, but am stuck on making the collar. I'm reticent to post the whole pattern here, as I paid for it from someone's online shop, and I don't want to deprive their livelihood. The basic gist is this:
I've made the front piece, with a neckline and shoulder.
The neckline is 18 stitches across.
However, when making the collar, the pattern states the following: "Attach yarn in top of shoulder at neck edge and work across 40 (44, 48) sts same as back, cut yarn."
I am completely at a loss for how I get 40 stitches here. Am I supposed to increase with 2 in each? The general pattern is also to "Dc in back loop of sc, sc in front loop of dc" so I'm not even sure how doubling up on an alternating pattern works?
Any help very much appreciated!
Thank you
Jessca
