Instructions

Back

Make 77 (97) chain stitches + 3 chain stitches increase and create 1.5 cm = 1 row of double crochets. Then, continue work with Main Pattern A (B) = 6 (7) pattern repeats + initial and final stitches. In 24 cm = 19 rows (25 cm = 20 rows) from the set-up row, leave 3.5 cm = ½ pattern repeat open from both sides for armholes = 5 (6) pattern repeats + initial and final stitches. In 33 cm = 26 rows (36.5 cm = 29 rows) from the set-up row, leave the central 18 (21) cm and finish each side separately = 1 pattern repeat + initial and final stitches for each side. In 43 cm = 34 rows (46.5 cm = 37 rows) from the set-up row, finish your work.

Front

Make in the same way as the back.

Sleeves

At first, make shoulder seams. Fasten the edges of armholes with Main Pattern A (B), making 5 pattern repeats + initial and final stitches in the 1^st row. In 4 cm = 3 rows, decrease ½ pattern repeat from both sides for sleeve chamfers for the next 10 cm = 8 rows = 4 pattern repeats + initial and final stitches. At 22.5 cm = 18 rows height of sleeve, finish your work.

Assembly

Make side seams. Fasten the neck-hole with 2 rounds of picots. Make basque along the initial edge of front and back, creating the pattern for basque. Increase 22 stitches in the 1^st round = 176 (216) stitches.

Note: at first, basque is the same size as the upper part of the pullover.

At 17.5 cm = 15 rounds height of basque, finish your work, making 1 round of half double crochets.

Make lower sleeve seams.
