The instructions for the sleeves are missing from this pattern. Make these after the back and front sides.

Sleeves (make two alike)
Using 3.75mm needles and G, cast on 38sts.
Work 10 rows in K1, P1 rib.
Break G and join in C.
Change to 4mm needles and work six rows st st, increasing 1st each end of the fifth row.
Join in L, and set the pattern for the first row of spots as follows:
Next row: K4 in C, *K1 in L, K5 in C; repeat from * to end.
Keeping the continuity of the spot pattern as worked before, continue to shape the sleeve by increasing 1st at each end of every following fourth row until 58sts are on the needle.
Continue in the pattern until the piece measures 16cm or 6¼in or required length, ending on a purl row.
Cast off loosely.
