Instructions

Make 61 (69) 69 chain sts + 1 chain st increase with mélange yarn and work with the main pattern. For sizes M and L, make 4 double crochets from both sides. In 20 (18) 16 cm from the set-up row, increase 1 st from both sides for sleeve chamfers, 4 (1) 1 x 1 st in every 2^nd row and 12 (18) 18 x 1 st in every row = 95 (109) 109 sts. Make these increases, at first, as double crochets, then, include them in the pattern (1 double crochet, 1 chain st by turn).

In 76 cm = 61 rows from the set-up row (middle) finish in symmetry. In 152 cm = 122 rows from the set-up row, finish your work with the 6^th row of pattern. Make sleeve seams to * sign on the scheme. Fasten open edges with 4 circle rows of long sts from inwards with lilac yarn.
