improvising 4

This is the same as my improvising 2 pattern except that I've reversed the slants of the decreases in rows 1 and 5.

Shown with a cast-on count of 16 stitches.   Getting chart...

  • Row 1 (RS): K2, *yo, k2tog, k2, ssk, yo, k1, repeat from *.
  • Rows 2, 4, 6, and 8: Purl.
  • Row 3: *Sl2-k1-p2sso, k1, yo, k2, yo, k1, repeat from * to last 2 sts, k2.
  • Row 5: K1, *yo, k2tog, k2, ssk, yo, k1, repeat from * to last st, k1.
  • Row 7: K2, *k1, yo, k2, yo, k1, sl2-k1-p2sso, repeat from *.
