Used Patterns
Rib: the quantity of sts is even. Make * 1 knit st, 1 purl* between selvage sts.
Rib, circle rows: the quantity of sts is multiple 4. Make * 2 knit sts, 2 purls*.
Relief pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 6 + 2 + 2 selvage sts. Work due to the scheme, on which only RS rows are stated, make WS row sts and yarn overs as purls. Start with 1 selvage st and sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with st after pattern repeat and 1 selvage st. Repeat 1st-12th rows.
Stitches control: 15 sts x 25,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
Instructions
Back
Cast on 76 (82) 88 sts and make 1 cm = 3 rows of rib, start with 1 WS row. Then, work with relief pattern. In 36 cm = 92 rows (33,5 cm = 86 rows) 31 cm = 80 rows from rib, bind off 3 sts from both sides for arm-holes and 1 x 2 sts, 1 x 1 st in every 2nd row = 64 (70) 76 sts.

In 55,5 cm = 142 rows from rib, bind off the rest 15 (18) 21 st of shoulder from each side.

Sleeves
Cast on 34 (34) 40 sts and make rib in the same way, as for back. Then, work with relief pattern. At the same time, increase 11 x 1 from both sides in every 8th row (12 x 1 st in every 6th row and 2 x 1 st in every 8th row) 12 x 1 st in every 6th row and 2 x 1 st in every 8th row for sleeve chamfers = 56 (62) 68 sts, include the increased sts in the pattern.
