Cabled Yoke Christening Gown

Difficulty Level: Experienced (use of short row shaping, and herringbone braiding – but don’t be afraid to try it, as I have tried to explain how to do both in the instructions).

Size: To fit Newborn

Materials: 16-inch circular knitting needle, size 6; cable needle; 1 skein (6 oz.) Red Heart TLC Baby, white; three 3/8 buttons; stitch marker; small amount of 1/8-inch ribbon.

Gauge: 5 ½ sts/inch in stockinette stitch.

Wrapping sts: In this pattern, wrap a stitch by holding the yarn in front of work, slip next st from left hand needle, move yarn to back of work, and slip same stitch back to left hand needle, and bring yarn back to front:
Picking up the wrap: Slip the wrapped st to the right hand needle, and lift the wrapped thread with left hand needle and place on the right hand needle next to the wrapped stitch, then purl them both together.
Inc – increases are made by purling into the front and back of a stitch.

Yoke (shaped by short-row shaping):
Cast on 17 sts.
Row 1 (right side): p4, sl 2 sts to cable needle and hold in front of work, k2, k2 from cable needle, k2, p4, k1, yo, k2 tog.
Row 2: k7, p6, k4.
Row 3: p3, wrap next stitch, turn; k3, turn; p3, pick up wrap and purl, k2, sl 2 to cable needle and hold in back, k2, k2 from cable needle, p1, wrap next st, turn; k1, p6, k4, turn; p3, wrap next st, turn; k3, turn; p3, pick up wrapped st and purl, sl 2 sts to cable needle and hold in front, k2, k2 from cable needle, k2, p1, pick up wrapped st and purl, p2, k1, yo, k2 tog.
Repeat rows 2 and 3 (20 times) until there are 22 eyelets at neck edge. End with row 3.
Bind off knitwise (wrong side) on next row.

Cut a length of yarn about 2 yards long and set aside for Herringbone Braid.

Pick up 129 sts along bottom of yoke as follows: *pick up 1 st in ends of first three rows, skip 1 row, rep from * across, ending by picking up 2 sts in last row.

Work Herringbone Braid (using two strands of yarn – these get very twisted together as you work, so it’s a good idea to pull loose strand past attached strand every so often to relieve the twisting):
It is worked as follows: knit 1st stitch with attached yarn, then knit 2nd stitch with cut length of yarn you set aside. *Bring attached yarn underneath cut yarn and knit next st, bring cut yarn underneath attached yarn and knit next st, rep from * across.
Repeat on next row, except purl each stitch instead of knitting – continue to bring yarns from underneath on each st.
Drop extra strand of yarn at end of second row.
Increase Row: (p3, inc in next st) 3 times, (p4, inc in next, p3, inc in next) across, end p4. (157 sts).
Set up Pattern as follows:
Row 1 (right side): (p5, sl 1 wyib, k2, psso) across, end p5.
Row 2: (k5, p1, yo, p1) across, end k5.
Row 3: (p5, k3) across, end p5.
Row 4: (k5, p3) across, end k5.

Split into Backs, Front, and Sleeves:
Work in established patt across 24 sts (don’t forget to count the slipped sts that are passed over the others – they still count in the stitch count!) These sts will be the Right Back. Break yarn, leaving a long tail, about 1 yard.
Begin first sleeve:
Attach new yarn and cast on three sts. *(inc in next, p1) 2 times, inc in next, sl 1 wyib, k2, psso, rep from * twice, end inc in next st, p1, inc in next st, p1, inc in next st, then cast on 3 sts. (47 sts -- counting the sts that have been passed over) Turn. (Sleeve is worked on these 47 sts)
Work in patt (with 8 sts between cables) for 2 repeats, then work rows 1 and 2 again. (Note: knit and purl sts are reversed on rows 2 and 4, since you are working in rows -- not rounds -- for the sleeves)
Decrease Row 1: p3, *(p2 tog, p1) 2 times, p2 tog, k3, rep from *, end p3.
Next Row: knit
Decrease row 2: p3, * p2 tog, p1, p2 tog, sl 1-k2-psso, rep from *, end p2 tog, p1, p2 tog, p3. (24 sts)
Next row: knit.
Eyelet Row: k1, (yo, k2 tog) across, end k1.
Next row: knit.

Attach new yarn for second sleeve and work same as first sleeve.
Pick up tail again, pick up 6 sts from underarm of second sleeve, then work remaining 24 sts of Left Back.
Work row 2 of Patt (be aware that there will be 6 sts between cables at underarms).

Joining and Increase Row: Using Cable Cast on, cast on three sts. Place a marker. *k3, inc in next, p4, inc in next; rep from * around to marker (EXCEPT!!!! Skip one inc at each underarm to make patt even at with 7 sts between each cable).
Continue in set patt, working in rounds, changing knit sts to purl and purl sts to knit on rows 2 and 4 of patt.
Work 8 rows.
Make increases in skirt as follows: inc in purl st on both sides of every cable.
Work 12 rounds, then inc in the same way again.
Work 16 rounds, then inc in the same way again.
Work 24 rounds, then inc in the same way again.
Work 20 rounds, ending with row 1 of patt. (there should be 15 sts between each cable)
Remove marker. K2, p7, replace marker.
