Shaping armholes
Please note: while shaping armholes, work on shaping
neckline and then shoulder slope simultaneously. Please
read the rest of the “Front” sections before further knitting.
Knit the next row, eliminating the side bars. From this point
knit on RS and purl on WS. Work 6 more rows, ending with
a RS row. In the next WS complete increase row for armhole
shaping.

WS increase row: selvage stitch, purl 2, twisted yarn over,
purl to the last 3 stitches, twisted yarn over in opposite
direction, purl 3.
RS increase row: selvage stitch, knit 2, twisted yarn over, knit
to the last 3 stitches, twisted yarn over in opposite direction,
knit 3.
Repeat increase row for armhole shaping every 7th row 5
more times, alternating increases on RS and WS. Work 5
(7, 11) more rows ending with a WS row. Now start shaping
shoulder (and at the same time working on neckline shaping).
