Back

In 60 cm from the set-up row, bind off the central 39 (43) 47 sts and finish shoulders separately, decrease 1 x 2 sts from both sides in the next row along the edge of neck-hole. In 62 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Front

Make in the same way as back, but with a deeper neck-hole. For this, in 48 cm from the set-up row, bind off the central 21 sts and finish shoulders separately. For smooth rounding, make decreases, matching with pattern design. Finish your work at the height of back.

Assembly

Make shoulder and side seams, leaving the upper 22 cm open for arm-holes. Fasten lower edge, neck-hole, and arm-holes with 1 circle row of single crochets and 1 circle row of “crab stitch” with grey yarn and crochet hook 5.
