Instructions

Back and Front

Make 31 chain stitches + 1 chain stitch increase and work with the main pattern. Finish your work at 90 (98) 106 cm from the set-up row. Then, fasten the long left side with 175 (193) 205 single crochets using light-violet yarn and continue with the main pattern. In 8 (8) 10 cm from piecing, leave 1 cm from both sides for neck-hole chamfer and 11 x 1 cm in every 2^nd row. At the same time, in 19 cm from piecing, continue working on the central 34 (38) 42 cm of back. Finish your work at 38 (38) 40 cm from piecing. Then, work on the left front, leaving 3.5 cm for the arm-hole. Continue making neck-hole chamfer and finish your work on the remaining stitches of the shoulder at the height of the back.

Make the right front in symmetry to the left.

Sleeves

Make shoulder seams. Create 12 (12) 13 pattern repeats of the main pattern on the long edges of arm-holes using light-violet yarn. Leave 1 cm at 4 cm length of sleeve and 10 x 1 cm in every 2^nd and 3^rd rows. Finish your work at 51 cm length.

Assembly

Make arm-holes and sleeve seams. Fasten the neck-hole with 1 row of double crochets using light-violet yarn, making 3-4 double crochets in 1 hole of the pattern repeat. Sew on the buttons.
