Instructions

Back with Sleeves

Make 37 chain sts (the quantity of sts is multiple 3 + 1 st for the symmetry). Make 3 chain sts increase for new row and work with main pattern due to the scheme 13-1 (12 pattern repeats). In 50 cm from the set-up row, increase 9 sts for each sleeve from both sides in 1 row. After that, work with main pattern (18 pattern repeats). In 24 cm from the beginning of sleeves, finish your work above back.

Front with Sleeves

Start work from shoulder seam (continue work with main pattern due to the scheme 13-1). Make the first row of 7 pattern repeats (22 sts). Crochet straight from the side of sleeve. At the same time, form neck-hole. For chamfer, increase 1 st (6 x 1 st) in every row from the side of neck-hole. In 24 cm from shoulder chamfer, finish your work above sleeve. For this, decrease 9 sts (3 pattern repeats) in one row. After that crochet straight (6 pattern repeats) and finish your work above front in 50 cm. Make the second half of front in reflection.

Assembly

Make side seams. Fasten lower edge, sleeves and edges of front and neck-hole with 1 row of single crochets.
