INSTRUCTIONS: Gauge: 2 stitches and 2 rows = 1 sq. inch

2.  Work in ribbing (k2p2) for 4 rows.

 

3.  Knit across the row.

 

4.  *Slide the first stitch off without working into it, (this will keep a 

      straight edge),

 knit the next stitch, then work ribbing across the row.  Repeat 

 from* until the rectangle is

approx. 30 - 36 inches long (shoulder to hem).

Sew the front to the back at the shoulders, aligning the edges 

and  leaving the center stitches open for the neck.

If desired sew buttons on the sides.
