Instructions:

Sizes: 34-38 (40-44)

You will need:

• Yarn (40% angora, 37% natural wool, 14% alpaca, 9% nylon; 62 m/25 g) - 250 (300) g of pink.
• Hook No. 6.

Puff stitch pattern: the number of stitches in the starting row is a multiple of 6. Knit according to diagram 1 in circular rows. Constantly repeat the pattern, transitioning from row to row according to the scheme. Knit 1 time the 1st-3rd circular rows, then constantly repeat the 2nd + 3rd circular rows.

Structural pattern: the number of stitches in the starting row is a multiple of 3 + 2. Knit according to diagram 2. Start with the stitches before the pattern repeat, constantly repeat the pattern, finish with the stitches after the pattern. Complete 1 time the 1st-3rd rows, then constantly repeat the 2nd + 3rd rows.

Knitting density: puff stitch pattern - 13.5 sts of the starting row x 11.5 circular rows = 10 x 20 cm; structural pattern - 13 sts x 7 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Bolero knitting description:

Yoke: make a starting chain of 204 (222) ch and close it into a ring with 1 sl st. Continue the work with the puff stitch pattern according to diagram 1. To shape in the 16th circular row from the starting row, skip the dc groups and perform only "popcorn" stitches. Then knit one more circular row of sl sts, slightly adjusting the volume (for this, perform only 2 sl sts in each pattern repeat).

Sleeves: for each sleeve, make a starting chain of 41 (53) ch + 3 ch for lifting and knit with the structural pattern according to diagram 2. After 18 cm from the starting row, finish the work.

Assembly: sew the sleeves. Fold the yoke in half (the transition of the circular row is located in the middle of the back) and sew the sleeves on both sides under the edge of the yoke.
