Crocheting Notes
Body: Begin by working into the back ridge of the foundation chain. Shape the armholes and neckline according to the diagram by decreasing stitches as shown; on the opposite side, replace edge stitches with “ch 3, 1 dc” and continue in the same manner. When carrying the yarn, fasten off and start again from the next beginning point. Crochet two front pieces symmetrically.
Sleeves: Start in the same way as the body, increasing and decreasing stitches at both sides while working.
Finishing: Join the shoulders with an overcast stitch worked through the back loops from the wrong side. Sew side seams and underarm seams using a mattress stitch. Work edging in the following order: neckline, hem, and front bands — crochet 3 rounds, then work the 4th round entirely in slip stitches from the wrong side. The sleeve cuff edging is worked in the round. Attach sleeves to the body by placing right sides together and joining with slip stitches.
