Instructions

Work from bottom to up as one-piece cloth, don't make side seams. Make 196 chain sts, circle them in the ring and work as one-piece cloth due to the scheme 2-1. Circle every row with slip st and make 3 chain sts increase for the new row. Decreases and increases are stated on the scheme. At first, repeat 1^st-2^nd rows x 15 times. After that, repeat 3^rd-4^th rows x 4 times for narrowing, 5^th-6^th rows x 8 times. After that, for widening, repeat 7^th-8^th rows x 4 times, repeat 9^th row to arm-holes. At 62 cm height from the set-up row, divide your work into 2 equal parts (back and front), make marks with pins. For arm-holes, decrease 13 sts in 1 row (1 pattern repeat) and finish each part separately. For arm-holes, decrease 3 crochets, arch of chain sts, 3 crochets.

Back

At the same time, make decreases, as 11^th and 12^th row due to the scheme 2-1. After that, repeat 13^th row x 12 times. After that, leave 18 sts for each shoulder (7 crochets, arch of 7 chain sts, 4 crochets) and finish each shoulder separately. At 20 cm height from the beginning of arm-holes, finish your work above shoulder. Make second shoulder in the same way.

Front

Crochet straight, repeat the 9^th row due to the scheme 2-1. At 13 cm height from the beginning of arm-holes, bind off the central 49 sts in 1 row (3,5 pattern repeats) for neck-hole. Leave 18 sts for each shoulder (7 crochets, arch of 7 chain sts, 4 crochets) and finish each shoulder separately. At 20 cm height from the beginning of arm-holes, finish your work above shoulder.
