Instructions

Back

Cast on 56-60-64 sts and make 5 cm with rib, after that, turn to making honeycomb pattern. After 52 cm = 70 rows from rib, bind off 9-10-11 sts for shoulder chamfers from each side. At the same time, bind off the central 22 sts neck-hole. Finish each part separately. After 53,5 cm = 72 rows from rib, bind off 8-9-10 sts of shoulder from each side.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but make deeper neck-hole. For this, bind off the central 10 sts in 46 cm = 62 rows from rib and then, 2 x 2 and 2 x 1 st in every 2nd row.

Sleeves

Cast on 19-23-27 sts and work with half-brioche pattern. After knitting 22 cm= 30 rows, increase the sts in the new right-side row:1 selvedge st, 3-5-7 sts of half-brioche pattern, 1 purl and 1 knit st from the next st, 1 yarn over, 1 st of half-brioche pattern, 1 selvedge st = 27-31-35 sts. After 50,5 cm = 68 rows, bind off all the sts.

Assembly

Make shoulder seams. After that, cast on 57 sts with circle knitting needles along the neck-hole line and continue knitting with circle rows with rib. At 4 cm height, make 1 cross purl from every 2nd purl st. Repeat these increases in the height of collar (8 cm) and in the rest stripes from purls = 76 sts and continue knitting sts due to the ornament ( = 2 purls, 2 knit sts).

At 10 cm height, turn to knitting needles 10 and continue making 2 x 2 rib. After reaching 22 cm height, bind off the sts due to the pattern.

Sew up the sleeves, make side and sleeve seams.
