There are corrections for the Eighth size (size 22)
Divide for Front Opening
[] Row 1: k66, cast off six sts, pm to mark new beg of rnd, k66 including last st from cast-off, pm, k138, sm (this now marks Left side), k66. 270 sts
[] Beg with a p row, work in st st without shaping for 8cm, ending after a p row
Armhole shaping
[] Row 1: k to first marker, place 66 sts just worked on holder for Right front, cast off 11 sts, k to next marker, place last 66 sts on holder for Left front. 127 sts
Work as instructed adding two stitches to final stitch count on each row.
For example:
[] Row 2: cast off 11 sts pwise, p to end. 116 sts
[] Row 3 (RS): k1, ssk, k to three sts before end, k2tog, k1. 114 sts
When you divide for the back neck, k 51 sts, then place 41 on the holder. This will ensure your back neck is central
Neck shaping
Work as instructed, adding one stitch to final stitch count.
For example:
[] Row 1: cast off 4 sts, k to end. 37 sts
[] Row 2: cast off eight sts pwise, p to end. 29 sts
This means you will finish with five stitches before casting off.
Right & Left fronts
Rejoin the yarn to 66 sts and add one to final stitch count on each row, including sections where you are decreasing on one edge only.
For example:
[] Dec at neck edge only on every RS row until 21 sts rem
[] Cont to dec at neck edge on every fourth row 4 times. 17 sts
You will now finish with five sts before casting off, so the fronts will match the Back
