Used Patterns

Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 8 + 1. Work due to the scheme. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-6^th rows x once, then, repeat 5^th-6^th rows due to the striped order.

Stitches control: 20 sts x 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Back

Make 89 (97) 105 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with dust pink yarn and work with the main pattern. In 45 (43) 41 cm from the set-up row, skip 4 cm = 1 pattern repeat from both sides for arm-holes. In 63 cm from the set-up row, skip the central 20 cm for neck-hole and finish both sides separately. Finish your work on shoulder sts in 64 cm from the set-up row.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but make neck-hole in 59 cm from the set-up row.

Sleeves

Make 49 (57) 65 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with dust pink yarn and work with the main pattern. In 16 cm from the set-up row, increase 1 st from both sides for sleeve chamfers and 13 x 1 st in every 2^nd row. At first, make increases in the same way, as for double crochets and include them in main pattern. In 50 cm from the set-up row, finish your work.

Assembly

Make shoulder seams. Sew up the sleeves, make side and sleeve seams. Fasten the lower edges of pullover and sleeves with 1 circle row of the main pattern with mint yarn, edge of neck-hole with dust pink yarn.
