Working on a pullover and I'm stuck

I don't get it. I'm following a pullover pattern (top-down) and I'm quite confused about the size and the stitches. Based on my calculations, I'm gonna do 134 stitches after the yoke increases but this pattern indicates I need 136? Where's the 2 at? Help. If you guys are familiar with this Ravelry sigh pullover please help.
 
The two stitches that are missing are probably the underarm stitches. You normally add them when splitting the sleeves from the body and those aren't part of the yoke increase count. You should double check that :)
 
Double check the increase rounds... some patterns sneak in extra stitches typically at the underarms or inbetween sections. You can also review if the pattern includes any setup rows or stitch markers you might have missed. If it's the Ravelry Sigh pullover, others have noted small stitch count quirks so you ain't alone
 
Yep, check those increase rows and underarm parts closely. Patterns can be sneaky with stitches there. Glad to know others had issues with the Sigh sweater, too. You're not the only one! Did you see any notes about the sleeve opening?
