DESCRIPTION OF WORK

Attention: the product is knitted in the transverse direction.

With a thread in berry tones, cast on 80 stitches for the left sleeve and knit the 1st row (= purl row) with knit stitches. Continue the work with the main pattern, changing the color of the thread according to the sequence of stripes.
Distribute the pattern loops as follows: edge loop, start with a loop before the repeat, repeat the repeat 4 times, finish with a loop after the repeat and 1 edge loop. Repeat in height 3 times and knit another 6 rows with garter stitch thread in berry tones = 48 rows.
After 34 cm from the cast-on row, continue working with stockinette stitch using thread in berry tones.
For the side edges of the front and back in each next 2nd row, add on both sides 7 (4) 2 times 1 p. and 1 (2) 2 times 3 (3) 4 p. = 100 p. Then for the arched bottom of the edges of the product, add from the right edge in each next 2nd row 5 times, 1 p., and from the left edge, decrease in the same rhythm 5 times, 1 p.
For the neckline, divide the loops 18 cm from the beginning of the stockinette stitch. First, continue working on the right 50 stitches, perform 14 cm for the back neckline and set the stitch aside. Then on the left 50 stitches continue knitting the front. For the front neckline, close off 4 sts from the right edge and then in each next 2nd row 5 more times, 1 st. After 14 cm, put the loops aside.
With a thread in berry tones, cast on 80 stitches for the right sleeve and knit the 1st row (= purl row). Continue the work with the main pattern, changing the color of the thread according to the sequence of stripes.

Distribute the pattern loops as follows: edge loop, start with a loop before the repeat, repeat the repeat 4 times, finish with a loop after the repeat and 1 edge loop. Repeat in height 3 times and knit another 6 rows with garter stitch thread in berry tones = 48 rows.
After 34 cm from the cast-on row, continue working with stockinette stitch using thread in berry tones.
For the side edges of the front and back in each next 2nd row, add on both sides 7 (4) 2 times 1 p. and 1 (2) 2 times 3 (3) 4 p. = 100 p. For arched bottom edges in each next 2nd row, from the right edge, decrease 5 times by 1 p., and from the left edge, in the same rhythm, add 5 times by 1 p.
For the neckline, divide the loops 18 cm from the beginning of the main pattern. First, continue knitting the front on the right 50 sts. For the front neck, close off 4 sts from the right edge and then in each next 2nd row 5 more times, 1 st. After 14 cm, put the loops aside.
Then knit on the left 50 stitches, perform 14 cm to form the edge of the back neckline and set the stitches aside.
Assembly: connect the set aside loops along the front and back lines of the middle using a loop-to-loop seam. Stretching the product to size, pin it onto the pattern, moisten it and leave it until dry.

Use triple mohair thread to sew the side seams and sleeve seams.
On circular knitting needles, evenly pick up 60 stitches with triple mohair thread (= 1 thread of each color) along the edge of the neckline and knit for the collar in the round using stockinette stitch. After 24 cm from the beginning of the collar, close the loops and turn the collar to the front side of the product.
For the bottom bar, cast on 70 (78) 86 stitches on circular needles with triple mohair thread and knit in the round with stockinette stitch. After 3 cm, loosely close the loops.
