Back

Cast on 71 sts and work with fancy pattern according to the scheme.

At 58 cm height, bind off the central 19 sts for the neck-hole and finish both sides separately, binding off 1 x 5 sts in every 2^nd row from the center. At 60 cm height, bind off the remaining 16 sts of each shoulder.

Work in the same manner as the back, except for the neck-hole. At 55 cm height, bind off the central 15 sts for the neck-hole. Finish both sides separately, binding off 1 x 3 sts, 1 x 2 sts, and 2 x 1 st in every 2^nd row. At 60 cm height, bind off the remaining 16 sts of each shoulder.

Sleeves

Cast on 53 sts and work with fancy pattern. Bind off 5 x 1 st in every 8^th row from both sides = 43 sts. At 25 cm height, bind off 1 x 1 st from both sides and 2 x 1 st in every 12^th row = 49 sts. At 43 cm height, bind off 1 x 2 sts from both sides, then 7 x 2 sts in every 4^th row. Bind off the remaining 17 sts.

Assembly

Cast on 70 sts along the neck-hole line and work with fancy pattern to match the ornament of the back and front. At 8 cm height, bind off the sts loosely. Sew up the sleeves and make side and sleeve seams.
