Used Patterns

Wavy pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 12. Work due to the scheme 1. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1st-4th rows x once, then, repeat 2nd-4th row due to the stripes order. For double crochets of the 2nd and 4th rows of the scheme, pin crochet hook only in RS rows - through back loop of sts, in WS rows – in front loop of the previous row st.

Stripes order: * 1 orange row, 1 yellow row, 1 melange yellow row, 1 turquoise row*.

Net pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 4. Make in the same way, as wavy pattern, but due to the scheme 2. Make 1st-3rd rows x once, then, repeat 2nd-3rd rows.

Stitches control: wavy pattern: 17 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Net pattern: 21,5 sts x 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Back

Make 96 (108) 120 chain sts + 3 chain sts increase with orange yarn and work with wavy pattern due to stripes order. In 27,5 cm = 22 rows from the beginning of work, continue with net pattern with yellow yarn, leave 1 st open from both sides in the 1st row = 94 (106) 118 sts. In 24,5 cm = 22 rows (22,5 cm = 20 rows) 20,5 cm – 18 rows from the patterns change, leave 4 sts open from both sides for arm-holes. Then, leave 5 x 2 sts, 3 x 1 st in every row and 1 x 1 st in the next 2nd row. In 45,5 cm = 41 rows from patterns change, finish your work on the rest 58 (70) 82 sts.

Then, fasten the upper edge and arm-holes of front and back together with 1 circle row of single crochets with orange yarn; 1 circle row with yellow mélange yarn and 1 circle row with turquoise yarn. For this, start at one side seam and make 3 sts in 1 base st on shoulders. Make shoulder seams 2 cm wide with turquoise yarn.
