Used Patterns

Striped pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 1 + 3 chain sts increase. Work due to the scheme. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-38^th rows x once, 1^st-22^nd rows x once, make the last row with burgundy yarn = 61 rows.

Main pattern: make in the same way, as striped pattern, but don’t make colors order. Make 36^th-38^th rows x once, then, repeat 37^th-38^th rows.

Stitches control: striped pattern: 20 sts x 13,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Main pattern: 18 sts x 16 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
