Instructions

Back

Cast on 98 (110) stitches and make 1 wrong side row of knit stitches. Continue work according to the patterns order. Simultaneously, increase 1 x 1 stitch in 2 cm = 6 rows from the setup row from both sides for side chamfers. Then, bind off 5 x 1 stitch in every 8^th row and increase 1 stitch in the 52^nd row = 111 (123) stitches. In 18.5 cm = 54 rows from the setup row, bind off 1 x 1 stitch from both sides for sleeves. Next, bind off 1 x 2 stitches, 3 x 4 stitches, and 1 x 6 stitches, and 1 x 7 stitches in every 2^nd row, including the increased stitches in the pattern = 167 (179) stitches. In 34 cm = 98 rows, increase 3 stitches for relief pattern A = 170 (182) stitches. In 41 cm = 118 rows (43 cm = 124 rows) from the setup row, bind off 1 x 8 stitches from both sides for shoulder chamfers. Then, bind off 2 x 8 stitches and 3 x 7 stitches (1 x 8 stitches and 5 x 7 stitches).
