After finishing this part, use the markers and separate the sts. as follows: front (42 mot.) and each sleeve (37 mot.). Form the lower armhole of the sleeves by joining the yoke (front and back) at the sides with a chain of 10 ch. sts., forming the armhole opening.

Rnds. 26 to 28: 56 mot., rnd. 29: 57 mot., rnd. 30: 58 mot. and fo. the yarn. Do the same to make the other sleeve.
