Directions are for a right handed knitter
Ruffle is 4x the number of stitches of garment -3
Cast on 413, this really works best with circular needles so you have the extra length.
Do not join rows.
I don't have a pair of 15 circulars so I had to thread the first 200 stitches onto a scrap of yarn. It was difficult but after the first few rows it was less so.
