Instructions

Make 211 (231) 251 chain stitches + 3 chain stitches increase and work with shells pattern. In 29 cm = 25 rows (34 cm = 29 rows) 39 cm = 33 rows from the set-up row, make the 6^th row once, then increase 7 (11) 15 stitches = 218 (242) 266 double crochets. Then, make 5 rows of double crochets, followed by *9 rows of rhombs pattern, and 5 rows of double crochets*; repeat from * to * once, decrease 1 stitch (decrease 1 stitch), and increase 3 stitches in the last row = 217 (241) 269 stitches. Then, make 8 rows of fans pattern and finish with the 4^th row according to scheme 3. Make side seams.

For the belt, make 5 cm of double crochets along the set-up row, make 169 (185) 201 double crochets in the 1^st row and decrease 10 stitches in the 2^nd row = 159 (175) 191 stitches. Make a chain of 120 (130) 140 cm with double yarn and draw it through the upper row of the belt.
