Front/Back

Make 168 chain sts and make 1 row of single crochets. Then, work with filet net in the following way: * 5 chain sts increase, * 7 chain sts, 1 triple treble crochet*; repeat from * to * to the end of row.

Make 4 rows of filet net. Then, make 1 row of single crochets and continue work due to the scheme 1. Crochet straight. In 55 cm from the beginning of work, decrease 3 cm of pattern from both sides for arm-holes. Crochet straight for 18 cm more. At the same time, in 9 cm from the beginning of arm-hole, leave 5 central pattern repeats open for front neck-hole and finish both sides separately, making smooth decreases. You should leave 13 cm for each shoulder. At 73 cm height, finish your work. For back neck-hole, start making decreases in 15 cm from the beginning of arm-hole.

Assembly

Sew shoulder and side seams. Fasten the arm-holes and neck-holes with arches of 7 chain sts.
