In 5 cm = 42 rows = 2 rows with holes, bind off 7 sts from both sides for shoulder chamfers and 6 sts x 2 in every even row.

Bind off the central 12 sts at the level of chamfers beginning and finish each part separately. Bind off 6 sts in every 2^nd row for neck-hole rounding.

In 2 cm = 4 rows of stockinette stitch, bind off the rest sts.
