Continue until piece measures 54-53-51-50-48-48 cm / 21 1/4"-21"-20"-19 3/4"-19"-19" (shorter measurements in the larger sizes because of longer sleeve cap and broader shoulder width), bind off at beg of every row in each side: 3 sts 1-1-1-2-2-2 times, 2 sts 1-1-2-2-2-2 times and 1 st 2-2-3-3-4-4 times.
