​Crochet White Top with Roses

You’ll need:

400 (500)g of white Meloa yarn (59% cotton, 41% polyacryl; 105m/50g);

Crochet hook 4.

Size: S (M).

Used Patterns

Rose: make 6 chain sts and circle them in the ring with 1 slip st and work due to the scheme 1 from the 1^st to the 3^rd circle rows.

Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 16 + 9. Work due to the scheme 2. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-5^th rows x once, then, repeat 2^nd-5^th rows.

Stitches control: main pattern: 22 sts x 10 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

1 rose = 6 cm.

Instructions

Fringe with Roses

Make 52 (60) roses and connect them between one another 4 x 13 (15) roses in the ring, then sew rings with replacement.

Back Lower Part

Make 105 (121) chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with the main pattern. For side chamfers, decrease 5 (6) x 1 st from both sides in every 4^th row. Leave the rest 95 (109) sts in 23 cm = 23 rows (27 cm = 27 rows) from the set-up row.

Front Lower Part

Make in the same way, as lower part of back.

Back Upper Part

Make 95 (109) chain sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with double crochets, start every row with 3 chain sts increase instead of the 1^st double crochet and finish with 1 double crochet in upper chain st of the previous row. In 2 cm = 2 rows from the set-up row, leave 1 x 6 sts from both sides for arm-holes and 1 x 2 sts and 2 x 1 st in every row = 75 (89) sts. In 17 cm = 17 rows (19 cm = 19 rows) from the set-up row, leave the central 35 sts for neck-hole and finish your work separately, leave 1 x 3 sts and 1 x 2 sts in every row for neck-hole. In 3 cm = 3 rows form the beginning of neck-hole, finish your work on the rest 15 (22) sts of shoulder.

Front Upper Part

Make in the same way, as back upper part, but with deeper neck-hole. For this, leave the central 25 sts in 2 cm = 2 rows (4 cm = 4 rows) from the set-up row and bind off 1 x 3 sts, 2 x 2 sts and 3 x 1 st in every row for smooth rounding.

Assembly

Make side seams of upper and lower parts. Sew fringe with roses between them. Fasten neck-hole and arm-holes with 1 row of single crochets and 1 row of “crab stitch”.
