You’ll need:
500 (550) 600g of light-orange Lampone yarn (70% cotton, 30% polyamide; 135m/50g);
Crochet hooks 3,5 and 4.

Used Patterns
Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 8 + 1. Work due to the scheme. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1st-4th rows x once, then, repeat 3rd-4th rows.
Note: sts after pattern repeat are stated as 1 pattern repeat.
Stitches control: 21 sts x 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
