Part 1 Main Part 

The main part divides into the right and left front pieces, back piece, and sleeves.

Step 1 Right Front Piece

The right front piece is divided into two areas, and we will start with a foundation chain. Then, work back and forth along this row of chains.

Note:  
1. The left and right mentioned here are based on the perspective of wearing the garment.  
2. For the omitted parts in the chart, work according to the decrease sequence.  
3. After completing the right front piece, leave a yarn tail of about 1.5 m and break the yarn.

Step 2 Left Front Piece

The left front piece is divided into two areas. We will start from foundation chain and work back and forth.

Step 3 Back Piece

The back piece is divided into 4 sections, and we will work back and forth using the foundation chain method to start.

Note: After crocheting the fourth section of the back piece, leave a yarn tail of about 1.5m and break the yarn.

Step 4 Sleeves

There are 2 sleeves, divided into the main part of the sleeve and the cuff. We will start from foundation chain and work back and forth. After the main part and the cuff are completed, they will be connected.

Part 2 Joining together 

Joining together is divided into shoulder-part joining, side seam joining, and sleeve-to-body joining. All joining is done on the wrong side.

Part 3 Edging

The edging is divided into hem edging and front band edging.

Part 4 Decoration

The decorations include Chinese frog , cuff decorations, front band edge decorations, ties, and tie buttons. The methods for the cuff and front band edge decorations are similar, only differing in the size of the sewing. Both include flowers, leaves, beads, veins, and branches.

Note:
1. For the Chinese frog, take 6 strands of yarn, about 1 meter in length. Reserve approximately 15 cm at the beginning, then chain 20 stitches and sew together with the wrong side facing outwards. The right-side Chinese frog should be about 10 cm away from the bottom edge, with a space of 5 cm between each frog. The exact placement of the frogs on both sides can be freely adjusted according to the actual situation.
2. The sewing positions and numbers of flowers, leaves, 6 mm pearls (27 pieces), and branches are random and can be freely adjusted by everyone.
3. Use the main or contrasting color yarn to sew the pearl buttons and 6 mm pearls. Choose any one strand of the color scheme for sewing.
