Instructions
Cast on 114 sts and knit 22 cm with garter stitch. Then divide your work in 3 parts, 25 sts for each front, 50 sts for back, 6 sts for each arm-hole. For making back, bind off 3 sts for the arm-holes from both sides and knit 12 cm with garter stitch. After finishing this stage of work, bind off the sts of the last row. Then, turn to knitting right front. Bind off 3 sts for the arm-hole, after that knit 20 cm with garter stitch. Then, bind off sts for making neck-hole - 5 sts once, 4 sts once, 2 sts twice. When the height of front is the same as height of back, bind off shoulder sts. Left front is made with the symmetry to right front.
After finishing back and front, start knitting sleeves. Cast on 40 sts for one sleeve, knit with gartert stitch, making increases from edges of your work. Add 1 st from both sides 6 times. Knit the sleeve to 27 cm height, after that bind off the sts of the last row. Now, you need to make the hood. Cast on 82 sts and knit 17 cm with garter stitch. After that bind off 1 x 15, 2 x 10 sts. As a result, there should be 12 sts left on the knitting needles, from which you should knit 2 cm and bind off the sts of the last row. Now you need to make assembly of all the details. Bind off shoulder sts, after that sew the sleeves and sew the hood to the neck-hole. Make 2 balls with the help of crochet hook and sew them to the top of your hood. It's better to sew the balls to the chain of chain sts made with the crochet hook. Sew the buttons to the front.
