200g of cream yarn (100% mercerized cotton; 87m/10g);

150g of the same yarn, but in green color;

Crochet hook 2.

Instructions

Front

Make 150 chain sts with green yarn and make 1 row of filet net: * 1 double crochet, 2 chain sts*; repeat from * to *. Then, work due to the scheme 1 according to the stripes order. At 36 cm height, leave the central 16 pattern repeats for neck-hole and crochet straight for 15 cm more for each side.

Back

Make 150 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and make in the same way, as front, but with not so deep neck-hole. For this, at 45 cm height, leave the central 16 pattern repeats = 25 cm and finish each side separately to the height of front.

Sleeves

Make shoulder seams. Make sts for sleeves along arm-hole with green yarn = 46 cm and crochet due to the scheme 1 according to stripes order for 26 cm, make decreases for sleeve chamfers, matching with the pattern design.

Assembly

Make side and sleeve seams. Make relief motifs due to the scheme 2 and connect them in stripes: 16 motifs for lower edge, 16 motifs for neck-hole, 5 motifs for each sleeve.

Sew relief stripes of motifs to the lower edge of pullover and sleeves, to the neck-hole, as it’s shown in the photo.
