GAUGE:
17 sts + 24 rnds = about 4 in. (10 cm) in Beaded Rib pattern worked in rnds using larger needles

NOTES:

1. Sweater is worked in one piece beg at neck.
2. Piece is worked in the rnd to leg openings, then back and underpiece are worked separately back and forth in rows. When leg openings are complete, underpiece and back are rejoined and worked in the rnd to the lower back. Lower back is worked back and forth in rows.
3. When knitting in the rnd on double pointed needles (dpns), your sts need to be divided fairly evenly onto the needles. If you are working with a set of 4 dpns, your sts should be divided among 3 needles. If you are working with a set of 5 dpns, your sts should be divided among 4 needles. The total number of sts will not always be evenly divisible by the number of dpns that you are using – this is not a problem! Simply divide your sts as evenly as possible, you will still create a symmetrical ‘tube’ of knitting
