Crochet hook 3.

Used Patterns

Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 14 + 7 + 3 chain sts increase. Work due to the scheme 1. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-6^th rows x once, then, repeat 3^rd-5^th rows.

Fringe A: make 40 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work due to the scheme 2. Make 1^st-19^th rows x once, then, repeat 10^th-19^th rows.

Note: make 1 slip st in the arch of the previous row in the end of the 9^th and 19^th rows in the places, marked with arrow.

Fringe B: make 18 chain sts + 4 chain sts increase and make in the same way, as fringe A, but due to the scheme 3. Make 1^st-19^th rows x once, then, repeat 2^nd-19^th rows.

Stitches control: main pattern: 17,5 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Make 40 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase for stripe and make fringe A of 86 cm = 69 rows long (98 cm = 79 rows). Then, make 147 (161) double crochets along the straight side of stripe, then, work with the main pattern. In 18 cm = 14 rows from stripe, make 1 row of double crochets and finish your work. Make side seams.

For straps, make 16 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase for each strap and make fringe B of 35 cm = 28 rows long. Sew straps to the front and back from both sides from the central 19 cm.
