Instructions
Transfer the molds to wax paper to use as reference when making the piece. Pay attention to the arrows on the measurements chart indicating the direction of the work.
Back: cast-on 51 sts using Inlove in the color rubi and 6.0 mm needles. Start at the bottom, working in stitch pattern A (12 mot. + 3 sts) (chart 1). At 35 cm from the CO edge, shape the armholes by decreasing, every 4th row, 3 sts (1x) then 2 sts (1x)- you should end with 41 sts. Continue working in pattern and at 55 cm from the CO edge, BO all sts and reserve the panel.
Front: cast-on 51 sts using Inlove in the color rubi and 6.0 mm needles. Start at the bottom, working in stitch pattern A (12 mot. + 3 sts) (chart 1). At 35 cm from the CO edge, shape the armholes by decreasing, every 4th row, 3 sts (1x) then 2 sts (1x)- you should end with 41 sts. Continue working in pattern and at 50 cm from the CO edge BO the 9 center stitches; continue working on each side separately. Decrease every 2nd row, on the neckline edge only, 2 sts (2x), then 1 st (1x). At 55 cm from the CO edge, BO the remaining 11 sts on each side and reserve the panel.
Sleeves: cast-on 43 sts using Inlove in the color rubi and 5.5 mm needles. Start at the cuff and work in 1x1 rib, following chart 2 for 6 cm. Make 28 increases in the last row of the cuff, ending with 71 sts. Change to 6.0 mm needles and proceed in stitch pattern A (17 mot. + 3 sts), following chart 1. At 24 cm from the CO edge, shape the sleeve by decreasing on each edge, every 2nd row, by 3 sts (1x), then 2 sts (1x). Make 7 more rows, then decrease again: on both edges and every 2nd row, decrease by 1 st (1x), 2 sts (2x), then 3 sts (1x). At 29 cm from the CO edge, Bo the remaining 49 sts. Make the second sleeve the same way and reserve them.
Assembling: using a tapestry needle and Inlove in the color rubi, seam the left shoulder (10 cm); leave the right one unseamed to facilitate when making the collar. Seam the sides of the body (35 cm), leaving 20 cm unseamed for the armholes. Seam the sleeves and attach them to the body.
Collar: using Inlove in the color rubi and 6.0 mm needles, pick up and k 66 sts around the neckline. Work in stitch pattern B for 3 rows. BO all sts in pattern, leaving a 25 cm yarn tail. Thread the tail through a tapestry needle and seam the collar and the right shoulder (10 cm).
String: using the 3.0 mm crochet hook and Inlove in the color Rubi, work 2 strings with 35 cm each. Thread them on the last row of the cuffs. Tie them with a bow to create a puffy sleeve.
