Back

Make 110 chain sts and 2 rows of double crochets. After that, work with relief pattern due to the scheme, repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows. At 43 cm height, make 35 chain sts from both sides for sleeves forming. Crochet straight for 13 rows. Then, bind off the central 14 cm for neck-hole and finish each side separately. Crochet 3 more rows, making decrease for smooth rounding from inwards, as it’s shown in the scheme. At 17 cm height of sleeve, finish your work. Make another side in symmetry.

Front

For right half, make 48 chain sts and 2 rows of double crochets. Then, work with relief pattern due to the scheme, repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows. At 43 cm height, make 16 chain sts from left side for sleeve and crochet straight for 11 rows. Then, leave 3 cm from right side for neck-hole and crochet for 5 more rows, making decreases, as it’s shown in the scheme. Finish your work at the height of back. Make left half in symmetry.

Assembly

After that, connect right and left halves of front in the following way: work along right front * 3 double crochets, 9 chain sts, skip 4 base sts (= 8 sts)*; repeat from * to *. Then, make 1 row of double crochets. Fasten left edge in the same way, but draw chains through arches of right halves while making left side arches. Make side and sleeve seams.
