FT66 Origami Sweater

There have been a few questions about the number of sts for the back. The pattern is written for 145 sts worked in K1 P1 ribbing. When a pattern calls for ribbing that means that once the first row of K1 P1 is done, every row after that is k the k’s and p the p’s. So, in the origami sweater row 1 is K1 P1 and row 2 would then be P1 K1. Repeat these 2 rows for pattern. If this still doesn’t make sense then go ahead and cast on 146 sts. That 1 extra st will not make a big difference. Watch the video on putting the origami together on YouTube- just search for Origami Sweater, Northampton Wools.
