Using the smaller needles cast on 191(209)227(245)263(281) sts and work stockinette st for 4 cm. Knit 1 WS row, then work stockinette st for another 4 cm.
Switch to the larger needles and begin the textured pattern on row 1 of the chart: work the 4 sts at right, repeat the 6 st pattern 31(34)37(40)43(46) times, work 1 st at left. Work rows 2-8 of the chart, then keep repeating rows 1-8.
When the piece measures 74(76)78(78)80(82) cm, work 2 cm in stockinette st. On the first row evenly decrease 41(42)42(43)43(44) sts = 150(167)185(202)220(237) sts.
Knit 1 WS row. Work stockinette st for another 2 cm, then bind off loosely.
