At 58 cm height of the main pattern, leave 3 central stripes of the main pattern for the neck-hole and finish 2 rows of the main pattern from both sides of arm-holes.

Front

Make front in the same way as back. Lace fringe consists of 6 festoons. At 31 cm height of the main pattern, start making vertical gore due to the scheme 4.

Assembly
