Instructions

Back

Make 111 (121) 131 chain stitches + 1 chain stitch increase with white yarn and work with the main pattern. For “bat” sleeves, make 5 chain stitches from both sides (= ½ pattern repeat) in 10 cm from the setup row and include stitches in the pattern. Then, make 1 x 5 chain stitches in the next 2nd row and 10 x 5 chain stitches in every following row, then, 3 x 10 chain stitches (1 x 5 chain stitches and 2 x 10 chain stitches) 2 x 5 chain stitches and 1 x 10 chain stitches in every row and include stitches in the pattern = 291 stitches. In 38 (39) 40 cm from the setup row, finish your work.

Left Front

Make in the same way as back, but make increases only along the right side.

Right Front

Make in reflection to the left front.

Assembly

Make shoulder and sleeve seams, leaving the central 24 cm of back open for neck-hole. Make side and lower edges of sleeve seams. Fasten the edges of the jacket, except for the lower edge, with 2 rows of single crochets with black yarn. Fasten the edges of sleeves with 1 circle row of picots with black yarn.

Braid black fringe in the edge of the right front; for this, braid every 2 threads of 65 cm long in every 1^st and every 2^nd single crochet by turn.
