Instructions

You should make two same details for your dress - front and back. The only difference is in forming the neck-hole. The dress is made with an alternation of relief stripes and gussets with cables in the center. Calculate the quantity of stitches, using the sample of the pattern. Divide them into 3 relief stripes and 4 gussets: 6 stitches of stockinette stitch, *3 purls, 12 stitches - cable, 3 purls, 21 stitches - relief pattern*; repeat from * to * twice, followed by 6 knit stitches.

Knit in height, crossing cables in every 8th row and knitting the relief cables, repeating the 1st-32nd rows. Form side chamfers by decreasing the first stitches of stockinette stitch. For this, knit two together from both sides of the details. Then, when approaching the waistline, make decreases of purls in gussets in such a way that all purls are taken out from gussets to 57 cm from the bottom part. By this stage, only the stitches of the relief pattern are left. Knit the upper part according to the pattern design.

Assembly

Make all seams. Don't sew the sides to the end; leave 21 cm for cuts. Fasten the neck-hole and arm-holes according to scheme 3 with the help of a crochet hook.
