Important note : To keep the chart from looking cluttered I have not used a symbol for the knit stitches. all blank squares on the right side rows (odd numbered rows) are knit. The blank squares on the wrong side rows are purled. Chart for version B Work 5 repeats of rows 1 - 24 then work rows 1 & 2 again. Work ruffle, see instructions on page 3
