Instructions

Yoke of Back

Make 62 chain sts and work with double crochets. Start each row with 3 chain sts increase instead of the 1^st double crochet. In 17 cm from the set-up row, leave 14 sts for the central neck-hole and finish both sides separately. For smooth rounding, leave 2 x 7 sts in every 2^nd row. In 20 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Yoke of Front

Work in the same way as back, but with a deeper neck-hole. For this, leave the central 12 sts in 12 cm from the set-up row and 5 x 3 sts in every 2^nd row.

Lower Part of Top

Make 156 chain sts and circle them in the ring with 1 slip stitch and work with circular rows of the relief pattern. In 45 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Assembly

Make shoulder seams of the yoke; for the collar, create 3 cm of double crochets along the neck-hole. Sew the yoke to the lower part of the top. Fasten the edges with 1 row of “shrimp stitch.”
