I am making a cardigan sweater for a child. The pattern creates a collar by increasing along the button hole edge. As you are creating this collar the pattern states the following:
When piece measures 45 cm. cast off outermost 17 sts for shoulder and continue in stocking sts over remining 15 sts as follows:
*2 rows garter sts over all sts, 2 rows garter sts over only the outermost 9 sts.* repeat from *-* until collar measures 5.5 cms.
Those instrucions are confusing. Could it mean the center 9? That would make more sense. If you did the outermost 9 on each edge, that would be 18. It could be that they would overlap in the center.
Hard to tell.

It says to repeat between the *'s until 5.5 cm, so you knit two rows of all the stitches, then knit the 9 edge stitches for two rows, then knit all, the end, etc, until you get to the right length.

Of course. That never occurred to me!
