Fans Pattern

The quantity of sts is multiple of 5 + 1. Proceed in the same way as the main pattern, but according to scheme 2. Points above the scheme denote double crochets of the last row of the main pattern. Make 1^st-3^rd rows x once, then repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows x once, and finish with the 2^nd row = 6 rows.

Fringe with Beads

The quantity of sts is multiple of 4. Work according to scheme 3 with circle rows. Start every circle row with 1 chain st increase and finish with 1 slip st. Follow the pattern repeat and make turns to the circle row according to the scheme. Repeat 1^st-2^nd rows x once.

Repeat from * to * x once, and finish with 8 rows in burgundy color = 92 rows.

Stitches Control

Main pattern: 18.25 sts x 8.5 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Fans pattern: 18.25 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Make 121 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with burgundy yarn and work according to the patterns order. In 42 cm = 35 rows from the set-up row, divide your work for the neck-hole after the first 61 double crochets of the main pattern and finish both sides separately. Increase 1 double crochet from the inwards of the 2^nd half. In 24 cm = 20 rows from patterns division, decrease double crochets in the 1^st row. In 108 cm = 92 rows from the set-up row, finish your work.

Assembly Instructions

Fold your work in half and for sleeves, make a seam of 24 cm long. Fasten the neck-hole with 1 circle row of single crochets and 1 circle row of “crab stitch”, skipping 1 st of the circle rows. Fasten the bottom edge with fringe with beads using dark-red yarn, and make 204 single crochets in the 1^st circle row. Make fringe on sleeves.
