Open jacket and openwork top

An exquisite combination: the openwork is very successfully played out in this twin set. The pattern appears continuous when the top and jacket are worn together without a closure. Well, in the solo version, the top looks more restrained, since the openwork stripe on it runs only along the center of the front and back.

Dimensions: 38/40 (42/44) 46/48

You will need: yarn (50% silk, 50% cotton; 170 m/50 g) - for a jacket 500 (500) 550 g green-beige melange, for a top 200 (250) 250 g color. melange salmon; knitting needles No. 3 and 3.5; hook number 3.

Pattern 1: elastic band (odd number of loops).
Front rows: edge, alternately 1 purl, 1 front, finish with 1 purl, edge.
Purl rows: knit loops according to the pattern.

Pattern 2: front stitch = front rows - front loops, purl rows - purl loops.

Pattern 3: openwork pattern (number of loops is a multiple of 27 + 5) = knit according to the pattern. It shows only the facial rows; in the purl rows, knit the loops according to the pattern, knit the yarn overs purl.
Constantly repeat the rapport of 27 sts between the arrows, ending with loops after the left arrow.
Constantly repeat 1-14th r.

Knitting density: pattern 3 - 25.5 p. x 31 r. = 10 x 10 cm; pattern 2 - 22 p. x 31 r. = 10 x 10 cm.
