Then, make 1 row of single crochets = 73 sts. Then, work with relief pattern, increase 18 sts in the 1^st row = 91 sts. For side chamfers, starting from relief pattern, increase 6 x 1 st in every row from both sides = 103 sts. In 6 cm = 7 rows from the beginning of relief pattern, leave 6 sts from both sides for arm-holes and 3 x 2 sts in every 2^nd row = 79 sts. In 22 cm = 26 rows from the beginning of relief pattern, leave the central 41 sts for the neck-hole and finish both sides separately. For smooth rounding, leave 1 x 3 sts, 1 x 2 sts in every 2^nd row from inwards. In 26 cm = 31 rows from the beginning of relief pattern, finish your work.
