Once you’ve completed the main shoulder shaping, it’s time to work the front and back
separately down to the underarm.

Left Front

With RS facing, work across the Left Front stitches to the marker.

Slip the Left Front stitches purl wise, working from right to left, onto a stitch holder or
waste yarn.

Turn so the right side is facing again, and work across the narrow shoulder strip to the
next marker.
