Picking up stitches - selvedge stitches
The sts are picked up from the WS.
Go through the first selvedge st.
Yarn over and pull the yarn through the selvedge st = 1 st.
There are small spaces between the selvedge sts.
Go through that next space.
Yarn over and pull the yarn through the space = 1 st.
Repeat in this order:
[pick up 1 st from selvedge st, pick up 1 st from gap, pick up 1 st from selvedge st, skip 1 gap].
When you reach the back neckline portion, pick up sts as you did for the front neckline - i.e. [pick up 2 sts from cast on sts, pick up 1 st from gap].
When you reach the selvedge sts again, switch back to this method.
