a multiple of 16 - 1 stitches in between yarn overs.
Note: For garter stitch variation, repeat rows 2 and 3 until appropriately 50-60% of your yarn is
used, ending by working a WS row, then continue on to the appropriate row of the border chart
as determined by the following:
For a multiple of 16 stitches -1 (+1, +3, +5, +7, +9, +11, +13, +15) between yo's begin border
chart on row 1 (3, 5, 7, 25, 27, 29, 31, 1). Example: 101 is 96 sts (a mult of 16) + 5 extra, so begin
border chart with row 7. If working with the written directions, you will also need to place two
additional stitchmarkers on the first patterened border row worked.

4 (WS, row 18 of body chart): K2, sm, k to 1 st
before center marker, p1, sm, k to end of row.

Repeat rows 4 and 5 once more.
