Switch to white (Alpaca in DROPS 153-13) and work 1 ridge.
Switch to green and work 1 ridge.
Switch to white and K 1 row, turn piece clockwise and pick up 4 sts along the side of ridges. Turn piece again and pick up 12 sts on the under side of cast-on edge = 28 sts on needle.
K 1 row over all sts. Insert a marker in the 13th and 16th st.
Then work in garter st and stripes AT THE SAME TIME inc with 1 YO on each side of 13th and 16th st on every row from RS (=4 sts inc), K YOs to make a small hole.
