YOKETTE PATTERN FOR 12 LOOPS
Knit according to diagram 2. It shows the facial rows. In the purl rows, knit all the loops according to the pattern. Complete rows 1–12 once, then, by analogy, continue the pattern upward with extensions on both sides.

LARGE PEARL PATTERN
Alternately 1 knit, 1 purl. Shift the loops after every 2nd row.

EMPHASIZED SIMPLE DECREASES
At the beginning of the row after the edge, knit 2 loops together with a slant to the left (slip 1 loop like a knit stitch, knit 1, then pull it through the removed loop); at the end of the row in front of the edge knit 2 stitches together.

EMPHASIZED DOUBLE DECREASES
At the beginning of the row after the edge, knit 3 loops together with a slant to the left (slip 1 loop as a knit stitch, knit 2 loops together as a knit stitch, then pull through the removed loop); at the end of the row in front of the edge knit 3 stitches together.

KNITTING DENSITY: 13 p. x 17 r. = 10 x 10 cm.

KNITTING DESCRIPTION

BACK
Cast on 66 (74) stitches on the knitting needles in a cross-shaped cast-on and for the placket between the edges, knit 5 cm with an elastic band.

Continue work according to distribution of patterns.

After 24.5 cm = 42 rows from the bar, close 1 x 3 stitches on both sides for a raglan bevel, then perform 12 (14) x 1 emphasized simple decrease in every 2nd row.

At the same time, after 28 cm = 48 rows, i.e. with the 3rd underlined decrease, start knitting on the middle 12 loops with a yoke pattern and continue working with stockinette stitch on both sides.

Attention!
On both sides, between the emphasized decreases and the yoke pattern, areas of stockinette stitch are reduced.

After 40 cm = 68 rows (42.5 cm = 72 rows) on both sides between the yoke pattern and the emphasized decrease there will be only 1 loop of stockinette stitch, respectively = 36 (40) sts.

In the next front row, on both sides, perform 1 underlined double decrease; to do this, do not yarn over and do not knit loops together in the yoke pattern, and include the outer loops of the yoke pattern in the underlined decreases = 32 (36) sts.

Next, in the yoke pattern, do not make any more crossings; instead, knit these stitches in stockinette stitch.

At the same time, perform another 1 (2) x 1 emphasized simple decrease on each front row on both sides.

After 42.5 cm = 72 rows (46 cm = 78 rows) from the bar, leave the remaining 30 (32) stitches.

BEFORE
Knit like a back.

SLEEVES
Cast on 38 (42) stitches on the knitting needles for each sleeve in a cross-shaped cast-on and for the placket between the edges, knit 5 cm with an elastic band.

Continue working as follows: edge stitch, 10 (12) stitches in stockinette stitch, 16 stitches in diamond pattern, 10 (12) stitches in stockinette stitch, edge stitch.

To bevel the sleeves, add 2 x 1 stitches in stockinette stitch on both sides in every 20 (18th) row from the placket.

At the same time, after 19 cm = 32 rows from the bar, start knitting with a yoke pattern on the middle 12 loops, and continue working with stockinette stitch on both sides.

Continue working with the yoke pattern until after 35.5 cm = 60 rows (37.5 cm = 64 rows) from the bar all the stitches in stockinette stitch have been used up.

Then, on all 42 (46) loops, continue working with a large pearl pattern from the middle of the yoke pattern.

After 40 cm = 68 rows (37.5 cm = 64 rows) from the bar, close 1 x 3 stitches on both sides for a raglan bevel, then perform 7 x 1 in every 4th row (in every 2nd row 3 x 1 and in every 4th row 7 x 1) emphasized simple decrease.

After 58 cm = 98 rows (59 cm = 100 rows) from the bar, leave the remaining 22 (20) sts.

ASSEMBLY
Sew raglan seams.

Cast on the remaining stitches of all parts on circular knitting needles and for the collar, knit on 104 loops with an elastic band in circular rows. After 15 cm from the beginning of knitting the collar, close the loops according to the pattern.

Sew side seams and sleeve seams. Hem the collar halfway inside.
