Rounds 1-8: *K1, P1. Repeat from * around. (64 sts)

Round 9: K1, P1, 25 times (50 sts). Okay maybe this is a little obsessive, but I like the starting tail to be at center back. Bind off 28 sts, be sure to keep your bind off loose. (36 sts remaining)

Remainder of bib is worked back and forth in rows.

Row 1: Knit 2, yarn over, knit across the row. if you are as obsessive as I am: On this row only: knit to last stitch, slip that stitch as if to purl to the right needle. Pick up both loops of the first bound off stitch with left hand needle, slip the slipped st back on the left needle and knit it and the picked up loops together. If not as obsessive: just knit that last st and get on with row 2. (36 sts)

Row 2: Knit 2, yarn over, knit across the row.

Repeat row 2 until you have 46 stitches on the needle.

Row 3: Knit 2, turn, knit 2, turn, knit 1, k2tog, yarn over, k2tog, knit to end of row. (45 st)
