Used Patterns:

Wavy Pattern:

The quantity of sts is multiple of 12. Work according to scheme 1.

For double crochets of the 2nd and 4th rows, insert the crochet hook in the back loop of the st; for WS row – use the front loop of the previous row.

Stripes Order:

* 1 orange row, 1 yellow row, 1 melange yellow row, and 1 turquoise row *; repeat from * to *.

Net Pattern:

The quantity of sts is multiple of 6 + 4. Make similarly to the wavy pattern, but following scheme 2. Make 1st-3rd rows once, then repeat 2nd-3rd rows.

Stitches Control:

• Wavy pattern: 17 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm;
• Net pattern: 21.5 sts x 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions:

Back:

Make 96 (108) 120 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with the wavy pattern, following the stripes order. In 27.5 cm = 22 rows from the beginning of work, continue with the net pattern using yellow yarn, leaving 1 st open from both sides in the 1st row = 94 (106) 118 sts. In 24.5 cm = 22 rows (22.5 cm = 20 rows) 20.5 cm = 18 rows from patterns change, leave 4 sts open from both sides.

Then, bind off 5 x 2 sts, 3 x 1 st in every row, and 1 x 1 st in the next 2nd row. In 45.5 cm = 41 rows from patterns change, finish your work on the rest 58 (70) 82 sts.
