Short row questions

IMG_0633

So I have come to the portion of the pattern that states that if you are a C cup or larger to add short rows. I range from a D to DDD cup depending on my body's mood, currently it is a D/DD. I understand how and where to add them. What I don't understand is how many sets of short rows I am to do? Are there visual clues that lead me to know when enough is enough?

  1. Perhaps my short-row tutorial would be useful?

    You'll have to turn the short-row shape upside down since you're going top-down (start at the bustline and work down), but otherwise it's just the same.

    That short row method works, but that is not the method described in the pattern. I could do that method, but I would like to understand this one. They have you do short rows on the sides from the side seam to the bust apex. I can't find any information anywhere.
