    I have a question on the sleeves – part 2: we finish part 1 with 62 stitches (I am doing the large size); part 2 says to slip 4 stitches then crochet 54 but 62 – 4 = 58 stitches – what happened to the other 4 stitches? also, what do we do over the slip stitches?
    then for the shoulder shaping row 1 ends with 53 stitches and I don’t know where the 53 comes from; and then row 2 decreases a stitch at the beginning and end of the row but we end up with 52 stitches – what am I missing?
    thanks
