Back

At 40 cm height, bind off 1 x 2 sts from both sides for armholes, then, 1 x 2 sts and 1 x 1 st = 61 sts. At 58 cm height, bind off the central 19 sts for forming the neck-hole, finishing both sides separately, and bind off 1 x 5 sts in every 2^nd row from the center. At 60 cm height, bind off the rest 16 sts of each shoulder.

Front

Make in the same way 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, and bind off 1 x 3 sts, 1 x 2 sts, and 2 x 1 st in every 2^nd row from the center. At 60 cm height, bind off the rest 16 sts of each shoulder.

Sleeves

Cast on 53 sts in 3 threads of yarn and work with the fancy pattern according to the scheme. Decrease 5 x 1 st in every 8^th row from both sides = 43 sts. At 25 cm height, increase 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 rest 17 sts.
