Pullover - tunic.

The A-shaped silhouette, which is created by dense side inserts, effectively wedged into the main pattern of the tunic and breaking the straight line of its lower edge, makes this tunic very relevant this season.

Dimensions: 38/40 (44/46)

You will need: yarn (77% cotton, 15% Kashmir wool, 8% polyamide; 175 m/50 g) - 350 (400) g sulfur; knitting needles No. 4.5.

Facial surface. Front rows - front loops, purl rows - purl loops.
Openwork pattern. The number of loops is a multiple of 14 + 6 sts. Knit according to the given pattern. The diagram shows the front and back rows. In width, start with loops before the repeat, repeat the repeat, end with loops after the repeat. Repeat in height from the 1st to the 10th row.

Decorative reductions. From the right edge: edge, knit 1, knit 2 stitches together: from the left edge: knit according to the pattern until the last 4 stitches, knit 2 stitches together with a slant to the left (= remove 1 stitch, as in knitting, knit the next loop and pull the removed loop through the knitted one), knit 1, chrome.

Legend

Knitting density. 19 p. x 28 r. = 10 x 10 cm, knitted with stockinette stitch:
21.5 p. x 28 r. = 10 x 10 cm, knitted with an openwork pattern (samples are made on needles No. 4.5).

Back. Cast on 176 (190) p. and 1st r. (= purl row) knit (this row is not taken into account in further calculations).
Continue the work, distributing the loops of the patterns in the following sequence: chrome, 28 stitches. satin stitch, 118 (132) p. openwork pattern, 28 p. knit. iron, chrome
At the same time, starting from the set row, to form bevels, make 1 decorative decrease on both sides: first 20 times in every 4th row, then another 6 times in every 2nd row. = 124 (138) p.

After 37 cm = 104 r. from the cast-on row, close on both sides for the armholes 1 time, 5 sts each = 114 (128) sts.
After 55 cm = 154 r. (58.5 cm = 164 r.) From the cast-on row, close all the loops in one row: the middle 54 sts form the edge of the neckline, 30 (37) sts on both sides of them form the shoulder edges.

Before. Knit like a back.
Sleeves. Dial 64 p. and 1st p. (= purl row) knit. Then between the edges. knit in an openwork pattern. After 21.5 cm = 60 r. (18 cm = 50 r.) From the cast-on row, add on both sides first 1 time for 1 p., then 4 more times in every 16th r. (10 times in every 8th row) 1 p., on the added loops knit with stockinette stitch = 74 (86) p.
After 50 cm = 140 rub. From the cast-on row, close all the loops in one row.

Assembly. Sew shoulder seams on the outer 14 (17) cm on each side. Sew in the sleeves, slightly stretching along the edges. Sew side seams and sleeve seams.
