Instructions
Back
Cast on 78 (86) sts. Work with pattern with leaves between selvage sts from arrow A (B). The quantity of yarn overs in every row should be the same as the quantity of knit2tog. Increase 8 x 1 st in every 8th row from both sides for side chamfers. In 27 cm from the set-up row, bind off 1 x 4 sts for sleeve arm-hole and decrease 1 x 3 sts, 1 (2) x 2 sts and 3 x 1 st in every 2nd row. In 16 cm from the beginning of arm-hole, bind off the central 36 sts for the neck-hole and finish both shoulders separately. For smooth rounding, bind off 2 x 3 sts in every 2nd row from inwards. At 18 cm of arm-hole height, bind off the rest sts of shoulder straight.
Front
Make in the same way, as back, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, bind off the central 18 sts in 4 cm from the beginning of arm-hole. Finish both shoulders separately. Decrease 1 x 3 sts, 5 x 2 sts, 2 x 1 st in every 2nd row along the neck-hole line. At 18 cm height of arm-hole, bind off the rest sts of shoulder straight.
Assembly
Make shoulder and side seams. Make the lace in the following way: on 70 sts along the neck-hole line, on 42 sts of arm-hole and on 84 (98) sts along the neck-hole.
