White Crochet Tunic
You’ll need:
500 (550)g of white Lana Grossa Secondo yarn (55% cotton, 25% polyamide, 20% silk; 125m/50g);
Crochet hooks 2,5 and 3.
Size: S (M).
Used Patterns
Relief pattern: due to the scheme. Make the 1st 2 double crochets of the 1st row in the 5th chain st from the crochet hook. Start every following row with 3 chain sts increase instead of the 1st double crochet. Start with sts before the 1st arrows, pattern repeat between arrows, finish with sts after the 2nd arrow. Make 2 double crochets in chain sts of previous row arches in the 3rd-5th rows.
Stitches control: 3 pattern repeats x 8 rows = 9,5 x 10 cm;
Single crochets: 21,5 sts x 25 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
Instructions
Back
Start with lower detail. For this, make 121 (130) chain sts + 3 chain sts increase. Work with relief pattern for 13 (14) pattern repeats. In 44 cm = 35 rows from the set-up row, finish your work with the 3rd row of the scheme. For yoke, make 86 (96) chain sts = 1 chain st increase and work with single crochets = 86 (96) single crochets. Increase 1 st from both sides in the 5th row, then, 4 x 1 st in every 4th row = 96 (106) sts. In 11 cm = 28 rows from the set-up row, decrease 1 st from both sides for raglan chamfer, then, 16 x 1 st in every 2nd row and 14 (19) x 1 st in every following row. In 19 (21) cm = 48 (53) rows from the beginning of raglan, finish your work. The rest 34 single crochets form neck-hole.
Front
Make in the same way, as back. Make yoke of two details. At first, make 43 (48) chain sts + 1 chain sts increase for left part and work with single crochets = 43 (48) sts. Make side and raglan chamfers from the right side at the height of back. Decrease 1 st from the left side at the height of back in the 4th row, then, decrease 10 x 1 st in every 4th row, 4 x 1 st in every 6th row = 2 single crochets. Finish your work at the height of back. Make right half of yoke in symmetry.
Sleeves
At first, make lower part of sleeve. For this, make 76 (85) chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with relief pattern for 8 (9) pattern repeats. In 44 cm = 35 rows from the set-up row, finish the detail with the 3rd row due to the scheme. Then, make upper detail of single crochets on the lower detail. For this, turn with 1 chain st and make 56 (62) single crochets in the last row of relief pattern. Add 1 st in the 3rd (2nd) row of single crochets, then, 4 (5) x 1 st in every 2nd row and 0 (1) x 1 st in the next row = 66 (76) sts. In 5 cm = 13 rows from the end of relief pattern, make raglan chamfers from both sides in the same way, as for back. In 19 (21) cm = 48 (53) rows from the beginning of raglan, finish your work.
Assembly
Make all seams and sew the details.
