Used Patterns

Wavy pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 12. Work due to the scheme 1. Start with sts before patter repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1st-4th rows x once, then, repeat 2nd-4th rows due to the stripes order.

Stripes order in wavy pattern: * 1 orange row, 1 yellow row, 1 melange yellow row, 1 turquoise row*; repeat from * to *.

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 and work with wavy pattern due to the stripes order. In 27,5 cm = 22 rows from the beginning, continue work with net pattern and 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 patterns change, leave 4 sts 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 edges of front and back with 1 circle row of single crochets in orange yarn, 1 circle row in mélange yellow yarn, 1 circle row in turquoise yarn. For this, start at one side seam and make 3 sts in 1 base st in shoulder areas. Make shoulder seams with turquoise yarn 2 cm wide.
