Back and Front

In 10 cm from the beginning of arm-hole, bind off 4 sts, 3 sts, 2 sts and 2 x 1 st in every row for the neck-hole. At 39 cm height, finish your work.

Make left front in symmetry to the right front.

Return to making back on 43 sts and cut the yarn at 39 cm height.

Sleeves

Make 27 chain sts and make 1 row of double crochets, continue work due to the scheme, increase 8 x 1 st in every 4^th row from both sides = 43 sts. At 52 cm height, finish your work.

Assembly

Make all the seams and sew up the sleeves in the arm-holes. For the collar, fasten the neck-hole line with double crochets during 8 cm. Fasten the front and bottom part with 1 row of single crochets, making 1 loop (1 double crochet, 5 chain sts, skip 3 sts) at the beginning of neck-hole on the right front. For button, make initial ring, fasten it with 8 single crochets and then, make 10 double crochets upon them. Sew the button.
