Used Patterns

Main pattern: The quantity of sts is multiple of 3 + 2 + 3 chain sts increase. Work according to Scheme 1. Start every row with 3 or 1 chain st increase instead of the 1^st double crochet or 1^st double crochet, followed by sts before pattern repeat, then pattern repeat, and finish with sts after pattern repeat.

Net pattern: The quantity of sts is a multiple of 5 + 1 + 1 chain st increase in the 1^st row. Work according to Scheme 2 for back and front of arm-holes. Start every row with 1 or 3 chain sts increase instead of the 1^st single crochet or 1^st double crochet, followed by sts before pattern repeat, then pattern repeat, and finish with sts after pattern repeat. Complete the 1^st-3^rd rows once, then repeat the 2^nd-3^rd rows. Work with single crochets into chain sts of the previous row.

Stitches Control:

Main pattern: 14 sts x 7.5 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Net pattern: 25 sts x 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Lower Placket

Make 29 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with beige yarn and work with the main pattern = 8 pattern repeats + ½ pattern repeat from both sides. Finish your work at 89 cm = 67 rows (97 cm = 73 rows) 105 cm = 79 rows from the set-up row.

Back

Leave the first and last 17 (18.5) 20 rows from the left side of the lower placket and make the central 33 (35 + ½ pattern repeat from both sides) 39 rows of the main pattern. Create 62 (68) 74 double crochets in the 1^st row with beige yarn = 19 (21) 23 pattern repeats + ½ pattern repeat from both sides, and then work with white yarn. In 21.5 cm = 16 rows from the lower placket, leave 5 (8) 8 double crochets, which are 1.5 (2.5) 2.5 pattern repeats from both sides for arm-holes. Leave ½ arches = ½ pattern repeat in the next row = 15 (15) 17 pattern repeats + ½ pattern repeat from both sides. In 32 cm = 24 rows (32 cm = 24 rows) 36 cm = 27 rows from the lower placket, continue work with beige yarn. Finish your work in 41.5 cm = 31 rows (41.5 cm = 31 rows) 45.5 cm = 34 rows from the lower placket, the central 22 sts form the neck-hole, with outer 14 (14) 17 sts from each side forming the shoulders.

Front

Put the first and last rows of lower plackets together = center of front. Work with the main pattern on 33 (35 + ½ pattern repeats from both sides) 39 previously left rows of lower placket in the same way as for back. In 32 cm = 24 rows (32 cm = 24 rows) 36 cm = 27 rows from the lower placket, leave the central 8 arches and finish both sides separately at the height back.

Sleeves

Initially, make shoulder seams. For this, fold back and front right sides facing and starting on one side, connect shoulders by making 1 single crochet into double crochets of shoulder edges, then, fasten back neck-hole with single crochets and connect the other shoulder. Fasten the edges of arm-holes with the net pattern using beige yarn, making 10 (10) 12 pattern repeats on front and back edges in the 1^st row = 20 (20) 24 pattern repeats = 101 (101) 121 sts. For sleeve chamfers, leave ½ arch in every 4^th row and 3 (1) 3 x ½ arch in every 2^nd row = 16 (18) 20 pattern repeats. At 13.5 cm = 12 rows (15.5 cm = 14 rows) 17.5 cm = 16 rows length of sleeve, make the 7^th row of the main pattern = 1.5 cm x once, and finish your work when the length of sleeve is 15 (17) 19 cm.

Assembly

Make side and sleeve seams. For straps, create a chain of 150 (160) 170 cm long with double beige and white yarn, and make a knot.
