Pinked pattern: 28.5 sts x 7.75 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

 

Instructions

At first, make 92 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with chestnut yarn for left front and work with the main pattern. In 53 cm from the set-up row, the shoulder line is reached. In 59 cm from the set-up row, leave your work. Make right front in the same way.

Then, for back, work on both details as one-piece cloth. To do this, make the matching selvage sts together in the 1st row. In 47 cm from the combination of work or in 106 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

For back of pinked pattern, make 201 chain sts with ginger-orange yarn. For front of pinked pattern, make 101 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with pinked pattern. In 15.5 cm = 12 rows from the set-up row, continue work with coral-orange yarn. In 31 cm = 24 rows from the set-up row, finish your work.

 

Assembly

Sew pinked borders to the top of set-up row and lower edges of front and back. For strap, make 3 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with chestnut yarn, starting every row with 3 chain sts instead of the 1st double crochet. Finish your work in 180 cm. Insert strap in the holes of pinked borders while seaming.
