Make in the same way, as back, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, start making each shoulder separately (22 sts) in the 39^th row.

Sleeves

Before you start, make pattern design in full dimensions. Make shoulder seams. Make 1 row of single crochets along the edge of arm-hole the length of row is the same as width of sleeve (about 77 single crochets). Work with the main pattern, make decreases for sleeve chamfers, matching with the pattern design. In 10 rows from the beginning of sleeve, cast on 38 sts along the edge and make 10 rows of 2 x 2 rib. Make all the sts as purls in the 11^th row, then, make 10 more rows of 2 x 2 rib and bind off the sts.
