Make increases for sleeves in the following way: make 10 squares for the front, increase 1 square, make 8 squares for sleeves, increase 1 square, make 10 squares for back and increase 1 square, make 8 squares for another sleeve, and increase 1 square. Continue work to 18 cm height, increase 1 square in 4 stated places. After that, make front, back, and sleeves separately. Make 16 cm for each sleeve and finish your work.
