Knitting instructions:
Top size: 36-38
You will need:
- Yarn (100% mercerized cotton, 110 m/100 g) - 400 g of ochre color.
- Needles No. 4.
- Crochet hook No. 4.
Pattern 1: follow diagram 1.
Pattern 2: follow diagram 2. The diagram only shows the right side rows; in the wrong side rows, all stitches should be worked as they appear.
Knitting density: 16 sts x 24 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
Back: Cast on 65 sts on the needles, knit with pattern 1, starting and ending the row with 3 purl stitches. At the height of 42 cm for the armholes, bind off on both sides 1 time x 5 sts (= knit the yarn over together with the previous stitch), 1 time x 2 sts, and 3 times x 1 st = 45 sts. Continue knitting straight. At the armhole height of 17 cm for the neckline, bind off the middle 15 sts and then knit each side separately. For the neckline rounding, bind off 5 sts once more on the inside. Bind off the remaining shoulder sts at once. Finish the other side of the neckline symmetrically.
Front: Cast on 70 sts on the needles, knit as follows: edge st, 18 sts of pattern 1, 32 sts of pattern 2, 18 sts of pattern 1, edge st. At the height of 42 cm for the armholes, bind off on both sides 1 time x 5 sts, 1 time x 2 sts, and 3 times x 1 st = 50 sts. Then knit straight. At the total work height of 49 cm for the neckline, bind off the middle 16 sts and finish each side separately. For the neckline rounding, decrease 7 times x 1 st on the inside. At the back height, bind off the remaining 10 shoulder sts at once. Finish the other side of the neckline symmetrically.
Assembly: Sew the shoulder and side seams. Edge the neckline and armholes with 1 round of single crochet.
