* P1, Slip 1, K1, pass slipped stitch over, knit following the pattern, K2 tog, P1 (turn the piece) purl following pattern, repeat from * until row 50
Split the piece in two again (32 and 32 stitches), this time we are going to form the armhole.

rep from r53 to h54 until you have only 4 sts left on your needles. Always pay attention to where you are doing the holes of the pattern.
Once you have 4 sts left follow the video to knit the strap. Then, once you finished knitting the strap leave these 4 stitches in suspense, we are going to join them with the corresponding strap of the other side soon.
h51: Now we take the other half (32 stitches) and start the row casting off 4 stitches, then Slip 1, K1, pass slipped stitch over, knit following the pattern, K2 tog, P1 and turn the piece.

h53: P1, Slip 1, K1, pass slipped stitch over, knit following the pattern, K2 tog, P1 (turn the piece)
h54: purl (turn the piece)
rep from r53 to h54 until you have only 4 sts left on your needles. Always pay attention to where you are doing the holes of the pattern. Repeat the process until you complete the 4 part of the top, then we are ready to join the straps. Take a look at the video to be sure you are doing it in the right way :)
