Pattern D: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 1 + 3 chain sts increase. Make in the same way, as pattern B, but due to the scheme 4;

Pattern E: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 3 + 3 chain sts increase. Make in the same way, as pattern A, but due to the scheme 5. Make 1^st-3^rd rows x once, then, repeat 2^nd and 3^rd rows, finish with the 4^th row;

Instructions

Back

Make 110 chain sts + 1 chain st increase and work with the main pattern 1. In 41 cm from the set-up row, leave 5 cm from both sides for arm-holes. In 59 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, in 53 cm from the set-up row, leave the central 22 cm and finish both sides separately. Finish your work at the height of back.

Sleeves

Make 59 chain sts and work with main pattern 2, placing the sts of patterns from the middle. In 2 cm from the set-up row, increase 0,5 cm for sleeve chamfers from both sides and 9 x 0,5 cm in every 3^rd row. In 37 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Assembly

Make shoulder seams, sew up the sleeves, make side and sleeve seams. Fasten all the edges with 1 row of single crochets and 1 row of shrimp stitch.
