   Coat: The piece is knitted from the bottom of the back and up towards the neck. Cast on 11-15-19 sts on needle size 7 mm [US 10 ½] with red. Knit in moss sts and stripes – see above- until finish – at the same time cast on new sts each side on every other row (i.e. end of each row): 2 sts 2 times and 1 st 2-3-5 times = 23-29-37 sts. Continue until the piece measures 21-28-36 cm [8 ¼” – 11” – 14 ¼”]. Then bind off the mid 5-7-9 sts for the neck. Split the work and finish each side separately – all measures are done from here from now on. JUST WONDERING IF YOU COULD HELP ME WITH THIS I DON’T GET WHERE IT SAYS 2STS 2 TIMES ONWARDS. THANKS. DIANA

     @Diana – The instructions that you identifed as a challenge are telling you how many stitches to cast on at the beginning of the row. You cast on two additional stitches the first two times, then 1 st the next 2,3 or 5 times (based on the size you are making – two times for small, 3 times for med, and 5 times for large). At that time you’ll have 23, 29, or 37 sts on your needle. Hope that helps you !
