​Free Style Vest

You’ll need:

450 (500) 550g of dust pink yarn (66% cotton, 22% polyamide, 12% yak wool; 145m/50g);

Crochet hook 5.

Size: S (M) L.

Used Patterns

Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 1. Work due to the scheme. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-14^th rows x once, then, repeat 3^rd-14^th rows.

Stitches control: 14,5 sts x 7,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Back

Make 157 (181) 205 chain sts + 1 chain st increase and work with the main pattern = 26 (30) 44 pattern repeats + 1 final st. For back, in 43 (41) 39 cm from the set-up row, continue work on the central 10 (12) 14 pattern repeats + 1 st for symmetry. In 16 (18) 20 cm from division of work, leave sts of back. Then, continue making front on side sts and in 16 (18) 20 cm from division of work, continue on all sts as one-piece cloth. In 80 cm = 60 rows from the set-up row (= 12^th row), leave your work.

Assembly

Fasten left front, set-up row and right front with 1 row of single crochets. Include yarn in work, continue work with the 13^th row and fasten side edges and set-up row with the 13^th row of pattern. Fasten edges of arm-holes with circle row of single crochets and “crab stitch”.
