PART1 Front BodyA​ ​ 00' 50'' ​

The front body is divided into several sections: the body, the neck-shoulder part, and the side panels. The body itself is split into Section 1 and Section 2. Section 1 starts with a circular foundation and is worked back and forth in rounds. Section 2 is then worked back and forth directly on top of Section 1. The neck-shoulder and side panels are worked back and forth at their corresponding positions on the body, with yarn changes required during the process. For details, please refer to the video tutorial.

Note: 
After completing round 4 of body Section 1, the side length of the piece should measure approximately 6.5 cm. If there's a significant difference, adjust your tension and re-crochet to avoid affecting the final garment size. Keep consistent hand tension throughout the following rounds. The terms "left" and "right" here refer to the left and right sides when the garment is worn.

PART2 Back BodyB​ 57' 56'' ​

The back body is divided into the following sections: body, neck-shoulder, side panel, and shoulder seam. The body is started with a circular foundation, worked in joined rounds back and forth, then turned and worked in rows. The neck-shoulder and side panel are worked back and forth at their corresponding positions on the body, with yarn changes during the process. The last row of the side panel is joined to the front body's side panel. Finally, the shoulders are joined from the wrong side. Please refer to the video tutorial for details.

Note: 
1. After completing the back body, it should match approximately in size with the front body.
2. You can also choose your preferred method for connecting the side pieces, just make sure to keep the fabric joined evenly and neatly.

PART3 Bottom EdgeC​, CuffsD​, and CollarE​​ 78' 34'' ​

Then, work the bottom edge by crocheting in a counterclockwise round along the front and back body. Next, at the armhole openings formed by the front and back pieces, crochet the cuffs in a counterclockwise round. Finally, work the collar edge by crocheting in a counterclockwise round around the neckline. For details, please refer to the video demonstration.
