Instructions

Main Part

1^st row: 3 chain sts increase, * 1 double crochet, 1 chain st*; repeat from * to * x 66 times, after that, divide 22 pattern repeats and work due to the scheme.

After making 9 rows, divide the sts of yoke in the following way: 6 pattern repeats of front, 5 pattern repeats of sleeve, 6 pattern repeats of back and 5 pattern repeats for the second sleeve. Connect the sts of front and back, adding 8 sts for arm-holes between them. Continue work of 14 pattern repeats (16 rows), then, take another color yarn and make 4 more rows.

Sleeves

Work on the previously left sts of sleeve and on the sts for arm-holes, totally, 6 pattern repeats. Crochet sleeves around – 2 rows with the main yarn and 1 row with auxiliary yarn (for fastening). Make a chain and insert in the 1^st row between crochets.
