Instructions

Back

Make 85 chain sts and 1 row of double crochets. Work 2 white rows of rib, 2 turquoise rows, and then 2 white rows. After that, work with the net pattern. At 31 cm height from the beginning, decrease 5 x 2 sts in every 2^nd row from both sides for arm-holes. At 44 cm height, leave the central 28 sts open for the neck-hole and finish both sides separately. For smooth rounding, bind off 3 x 2 sts in every 2^nd row. At 46 cm height, bind off sts of shoulder.

Front

Make in the same way as back. At 32 cm height from the beginning, leave the central 8 sts open for the neck-hole and finish both sides separately. For neck-hole forming, decrease 16 x 1 st in every row. At 46 cm height, bind off sts of shoulder.

Sleeves

Make 60 chain sts and work 2 white rows, 2 turquoise rows, and 2 white rows. After that, work with the net pattern. At 5 cm height from the beginning of work, decrease 12 x 2 sts in every row from both sides for sleeve caps.

Assembly

Sew shoulder and side seams, then sew up the sleeves. Fasten the neck-hole with 1 row of single crochets, followed by 1 white row, 2 turquoise rows, and 2 white rows.
