Instructions

At first, make pattern design in natural size and match with it in the process of work.

Back

Cast on 93 (101) 111 sts and work with relief pattern. In 40 cm from the set-up row, bind off all the sts. Make 81 (87) 97 single crochets on the bound off edge by means of the crochet hook and work with lace pattern, allocating the sts from the center. For arm-holes, decrease 5 (6) 7 sts from both sides due to the pattern design. In 17 (17) 18 cm from the beginning of lace part, decrease the central 20 (20) 21 cm for neck-hole due to the pattern design and finish both sides separately. In 19 (19) 20 cm from the beginning of lace part finish your work.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, divide the lace part in the center and finish both sides separately. In 7 (7) 8 cm from the beginning of lace part, decrease 10 (10) 10,5 cm from inwards for the neck-hole due to the pattern design.

Sleeves

Make 41 (51) 51 chain sts + 1 chain st increase by means of the crochet hook and work with lace pattern. For sleeve chamfers, increase 4 cm from both sides due to the pattern design. In 28 cm from the set-up row, make decreases for sleeve caps from both sides due to the pattern design. In 12 (13) 14 cm from the beginning of sleeve cap, finish your work.
