Used Patterns

Mix of patterns: the quantity of sts is multiple 14 + 1 + 3 chain sts increase. Work due to the scheme, starting from arrow A. Start every row with chain st increase and sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-5^th rows x once, 2^nd-5^th rows x 4 times, 6^th-9^th rows x once, then, repeat 8^th and 9^th rows. Fasten the set-up row from arrow B, make 1^st-7^th rows x once, then, repeat 4^th-7^th rows.

Stitches control: 19,5 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm with crochet hook 4;

15,5 sts x 6,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm with crochet hook 4,5.

Instructions

Back

Make 85 (99) chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with crochet hook 4 and work with mix of patterns from arrow A. In 41 cm = 33 rows from the set-up row, leave the central 20 cm for the neck-hole and finish both sides separately. Finish your work in 43 cm = 35 rows from the set-up row. Fasten the set-up row with crochet hook 4 due to the scheme from arrow B. In 7,5 cm = 6 rows from the set-up row, fasten the edge with crochet hook 4,5. In 32 cm = 22 rows from the set-up row, finish your work.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, in 27,5 cm = 22 rows from the set-up row, leave the central 6 cm and 7 x 1 cm. For this, make 4 chain sts in the beginning or end of row, make 1 treble crochet in the 1^st st of the previous row and crochet it with the last st of the row together. Finish at the height of back.

Assembly

Make seams, leaving 18 (20) cm open for arm-holes in side seams. Fasten the neck-hole with 1 row of single crochets and 1 row of picot.
