PATTERNS AND DIAGRAMS

RUBBER

Odd number of loops.

Front rows: edge, alternately 1 front, 1 purl, finish 1 front, edge.

Purl rows: knit loops according to the pattern.

Circular rows: alternately 1 knit, 1 purl.

PATTERN FROM “LEAVES”

The number of loops at the beginning is a multiple of 10 + 3 + 2 edge = knit according to. scheme. It shows facial rows. In purl rows, purl all loops and yarn overs. Start with 1 edge stitch and loops before the repeat, repeat the repeat all the time, finish with loops after the repeat and 1 edge stitch. Repeat rows 1–16 constantly.

Attention!

The number of loops varies in height within the repeat; this is not taken into account in the instructions. The indications of loops in the instructions always refer to the original number of loops.

FACIAL SMOOTH

Front rows - front loops, purl rows - purl loops.

KNITTING DENSITY

33.5 p. x 38 r. = 10 x 10 cm, tied with an elastic band;
22 p. x 38 r. = 10 x 10 cm, knitted with a “leaf” pattern.

COMPLETING OF THE WORK

BACK

Cast on 99 stitches on the knitting needles and knit 2.5 cm with an elastic band for the placket, while in the last purl row, evenly distributed, decrease 14 sts = 85 sts.

Continue working with the “leaf” pattern.

For the edges of the cut, after 8.5 cm = 32 rows from the bar, cast on 1 x 3 new loops on both sides and knit with pattern 3 = 91 sts.

After 9.5 cm = 36 rows from the bar, decrease 1 x 1 p. for fitting on both sides, then in every 4th row 8 x 1 p. = 73 p.

Attention!

When making decreases (and subsequent increases), make sure that the number of yarn overs and loops knitted together in pattern 2 coincides.

External loops that are not used for rapport should be knitted in stockinette stitch.

After 19 cm = 72 rows from the bar, add 1 x 1 p. for a side bevel on both sides, then in every 8th row 7 x 1 p. First knit the increases in stockinette stitch and gradually, as far as possible, include them in the “leaf” pattern = 89 p.

After 35.5 cm = 134 rows from the bar, close off for a raglan bevel on both sides 1 x 4 stitches, then * close off in the next 2nd row 1 x 1 stitches and in every 4th row 2 x 1 stitches, from * repeat 6 more times, then in the next 2nd row cast off another 1 x 1 st.

After 54.5 cm = 208 rows from the bar, bind off the remaining 37 sts.

BEFORE

Cast on 99 loops on the knitting needles and knit 2.5 cm with an elastic band for the strap, while in the last purl row on the first and last 31 loops, evenly distributed, decrease by 7 sts = 85 sts.

Continue working as follows: edging, 23 sts with a pattern of “leaves”, 37 sts continue knitting with an elastic band, 23 sts with a pattern of “leaves”, edging.

The edges of the cut, waisting and side bevels are done as on the back = 89 p.

After 35.5 cm = 134 rows from the bar, close off for a short raglan bevel on both sides 1 x 4 stitches, then * close off in the next 2nd row 1 x 1 stitches and in every 4th row 2 x 1 stitches. , from * repeat 5 more times, then in the next 2nd row cast off another 2 x 1 sts.

Simultaneously with the 1st decrease for the raglan bevel, close the middle loop for the V-shaped neckline and finish both sides separately.

To bevel along the inner edge, cast off 2 x 1 stitches in every 2nd row and 15 x 1 stitches in every 4th row.

After 52.5 cm = 200 rows from the bar, knit the remaining 3 stitches together and pull the thread through the last loop.

LEFT SLEEVE

Cast on 60 loops on the knitting needles and knit 2.5 cm with an elastic band for the placket, while in the last purl row on the first and last 27 loops, evenly distributed, decrease 4 loops, between them for the edge of the cut close the middle 6 loops = 2 x 23 sts .

To cut the sleeve, leave the last 23 sts and on the first 23 sts knit with a “leaf” pattern, start with 1 edge and the last 5 loops before the repeat, perform the repeat 1 time, finish with the first 6 loops after the repeat and 1 edge.

To bevel the sleeves, add 6 x 1 sts along the right edge in every 8th row from the initial row using stockinette stitch and gradually incorporate them into the pattern = 29 sts.

After 14.5 cm = 56 rows from the bar, close for the rear raglan bevel along the right edge 1 x 4 p., then decrease in every 4th row 18 x 1 p.

After 34 cm = 130 rows from the bar, close the remaining 7 sts. On the remaining 23 sts, knit in a mirror image, while after 14.5 cm = 56 rows from the bar, close for the front raglan bevel along the left edge 1 x 4 sts, then in every 4th row decrease 16 x 1 st.

After 32 cm = 122 rows from the bar, close 1 x 3 stitches along the left edge, then in every 2nd row 2 x 2 stitches and after 33.5 cm = 128 rows from the plank, close off the remaining 2 stitches.

RIGHT SLEEVE

Knit the same as the left sleeve, but in a mirror image.

ASSEMBLY

For the slats of the sleeve cuts, cast on 87 stitches on circular knitting needles along the edges of the sleeve cuts and knit with an elastic band, while in the 1st purl row between the edges, start and finish with 1 purl.

To thread the tie in the 2nd row of the bar, make 7 holes, for each hole, knit 2 loops together with a slant to the left (= 1 slip off as a knit stitch, 1 knit stitch, then pull it through the removed loop) and make 1 yarn over.

Make the 1st hole after the edge and 5 loops with a pattern of 4 from the bottom edge or after the edge and 6 loops with an elastic band from the top edge, respectively, make the next 6 holes with an interval of 10 stitches. With a bar width of 1 cm = 3 rows, bind off all the loops according to the pattern. Sew the ends of the strip at the bottom edge of the cut end-to-end.

For the side slits, cast on 23 stitches on circular needles along the edges of the front and back slits and knit 1 cm = 3 rows with an elastic band, starting with 1 purl row. Then close the loops according to the drawing.

Sew raglan seams, as well as side seams and sleeve seams. Place the upper ends of the front cut strips over the ends of the back cut strips and sew together to the edge of the cut.

On circular knitting needles, cast on 52 loops along the edge of the left bevel of the front neckline, 1 loop from the top (= middle loop), 52 loops along the edge of the right bevel of the front neckline, 17 loops along the edge of the sleeve, including the ends of the cut strips, 37 loops along the edge of the back neckline and along the edge of the sleeve, including the ends of the cut strips, 17 loops, = 176 loops, close the work in a ring.

For the placket, knit with an elastic band in circular rows, starting with knit 1 so that the middle loop is also a knit stitch.

To give the shape 4 times in every 2nd round row at the corner of the front neck, knit 1 loop with a double slant to the left (= slip the middle loop with the previous loop together as knit, knit the next loop and pull it through the removed loops). With a bar width of 2.5 cm = 8 circular rows, bind off all loops according to the pattern.

For the sleeves, make 2 ties. For each tie, make a hollow cord. To do this, cast on 4 loops on 2 stocking needles, knit the loops, * do not turn the work, but move the loops back to the beginning of the knitting needle, move the thread behind the work to the beginning, while tightening tightly and knit the loops again, from * constantly repeat until length 100 cm. Then close the loops.

Pass the ties from the top edge of the cut crosswise into the holes of the straps and tie above the sleeve strap.
