Instructions:

Back:

Cast on 110 sts, make 2 cm of stockinette stitch, then, make relief row, 2 rows of stockinette stitch, relief row, 2 cm of stockinette stitch and 2 relief rows. Then, knit with stockinette stitch straight. At 46 cm height, bind off 1 x 5 sts for arm-holes from both sides and then 12 x 1 st in every 2^nd row from both sides (make decreases, stepping back 3 sts from the edge). At 25 cm height of the arm-hole, bind off the rest sts.

Front:

Make in the same way as back to the arm-hole. At the same time with the beginning of arm-holes, divide your work in half and then finish each part separately, bind off 1 st from inwards in every RS row. Make arm-hole in the same way as for back. Bind off the rest sts of shoulder at 25 cm height. Finish the second part of neck-hole in symmetry to the first one.

Sleeves:

Cast on 64 sts along the arm-hole and work with stockinette stitch, make relief row in every 3 cm. For sleeve widening, increase 12 x 1 st and 1 x 5 sts from both sides in every RS row (making increases, stepping back 3 sts from the edge). Then, knit, making decreases of 1 st from both sides in every 8^th row. After that, make knit2tog and make 4 cm of 2 x 2 rib, bind off the sts.

Assembly:

Fasten the lower edge and neck-hole line with “shrimp stitch” with the help of the crochet hook.
