PART1 Yoke [Color 1]

The yoke section uses a double crochet chain cast on, crocheting in rounds, and features short rows for the back body and sleeves positions.

PART2 Body and Hem

The body is crocheted in rounds on the front body and back body, with increases needed at the underarm position. The hem is then crocheted in rounds following the body, and in Section 2, the needle size needs to be changed.

Note: The number of rounds for the body is for reference only; crochet until you reach the corresponding dimension (23cm).

PART3 Sleeves

The sleeve is divided into two parts: the sleeve body and the sleeve edging. The sleeve body is crocheted in rounds following the shoulder-parts. Decrease stitches are needed in Sleeve 1. The sleeve edging is crocheted by picking up stitches at the bind off position of Sleeve 3 of the sleeve body.

PART4 Decorations

The decorations are divided into yoke edging and slip stitch pattern. The yoke edging is crocheted by picking up stitches on the last round of purl stitches in the yoke section, while the slip stitch pattern is crocheted on the pattern.
