Used Patterns

Main pattern: scheme 13-1, repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows. Make back from down to up. Each half of front is made from upper edge (shoulder seam) of back from up to down.

Instructions

Back with Sleeves

Work from up to down. Make 37 chain sts (the quantity of sts is multiple 3 + 1 st for symmetry). Make 3 chain sts increase to new row and crochet straight with the main pattern due to scheme 13-1 (12 pattern repeats). In 50 cm from the set-up row, increase 9 sts from both sides in one row (3 pattern repeats). After that, crochet straight with the main pattern (18 pattern repeats). In 24 cm from the beginning of sleeves, finish your work.

Front with Sleeves

Start your work from shoulder seam (continue main pattern due to scheme 13-1). Make the 1^st row out of 7 pattern repeats (22 sts). Crochet straight from the side of sleeve. At the same time, form neck-hole. For chamfer, increase the 1^st st in every row (6 x 1 st) = 9 pattern repeats. In 24 cm from shoulder seams, finish your work above back. Make the second half of front in reflection.

Assembly

Make side seams. Fasten lower edge of work, edges of sleeves, and front neck-hole with 1 row of single crochets. Sew button to the left front.
