Work 12 sts at the right end of the chart, repeat the 24 st pattern 14(16)18(20)22 times, work the 12 sts at the left end. Work rows 11–24 of the chart, then keep repeating rows 10–24.
When the piece measures 49(51)53(55)57 cm, place markers at the sides, with 96(108)120(132)144 sts in the fronts and 168(192)216(240)264 sts in the back. Begin neckline decreases at both ends: (RS) work 13 sts, skp (slip 1 knitwise, k1, pass the slipped st over), work to last 15 sts, k2tog, work to end. Repeat the decreases at both ends 26(24)26(25)27 more times on every other row and then 4(6)6(7)7 times every 4th row.
Note: When the piece measures 51(53)55(57)59 cm, divide the sts into three groups: on a RS row, work to last 12(10)12(10)12 sts before first side marker, bind off next 24(20)24(20)24 sts for an armhole, work to last 12(10)12(10)12 sts before second side marker, bind off the next 24(20)24(20)24 sts for the other armhole, work to end.
