Back:
Cast on 85 stitches with US 7 (4.5 mm) needles, work 1 wrong-side row knit.
Then work with US 8 (5 mm) needles in the textured pattern.
For armholes after 15.7 inches (40 cm) = 92 rows from the beginning bind off 2 stitches once on both sides, then in every 2nd row bind off 2 stitches once and 1 stitch twice = 73 stitches.
For shoulder shaping after 23.6 inches (60 cm) = 138 rows from the beginning bind off 7 stitches once on both sides, then in every 2nd row bind off 7 stitches twice.
At the same time with the first decrease for the shoulder slope bind off the middle 21 stitches for the neckline and finish both sides separately.

For this after 16.1 inches (41 cm) from the beginning = in row 94 (wrong-side row) from the center stitch work 2 stitches (1 purl stitch and 1 twisted purl stitch).
Then divide the work in half, leave the first 41 stitches unworked and continue first on the right finished half over 41 stitches, working the decreases (a total of 16 stitches) according to the chart.
Work the armhole and shoulder decreases at the left edge as described for the back.
Then finish the left half in mirror image, at the division edge instead of slip-slip-pass-over work knit 2 together and instead of slip-slip-pass-over over 3 stitches work knit 3 together.
