If you are increasing/decreasing 8 stitches every 2 rows, then you accomplish the same thing on a yoke if you increase/decrease 40 stitches every 10 rows. Just spaces them evenly around the needle. ie If you have 160 stitches, increase after every 4th stitch. 10-12 rows between increase rows will lie flat in DK or worsted, but no more; 4-8 is fine. You can figure out how many increase/decrease rows you need from the difference between the total stitches at the neck and total at the bottom of the yoke taking the raglan 8 to every 2 rows as a guide - 8 rows = 32 stitches

As in--I can mix methods if I am VERRRRY careful, right? Good, I really didn`t want to start over, but I have knit the same neck 3 times already. I am not really happy with my last 5 rows, and this will make it less painful if I can rip out my last sequence, but not have to start over. Yahooo! Thanks Alice!
