Knitting Description

The back and front are knitted on circular needles from bottom to top

Cast on 166 stitches on circular needles No. 3 and for the lower edge knit 6 rows in 1x1 ribbing.
Continue working with patterns using needles No. 4. In every 4th row on the sides, make increases of 10x1 stitch, following the explanations of the video project.
After 19 cm = 44 rows from the hem, to form the armhole, symmetrically divide the stitches: back/front with 103 stitches each.

Continue knitting separately: back/front with straight needles No. 4.

Back = 103 stitches.

After 21 cm = 48 rows from the start of the armhole, to form the shoulder slope, symmetrically bind off 1x3 stitches from each edge and then in every second row 4x3 stitches, 5x4 stitches. If you are using short rows, leave the stitches on the needle open.

To form the neckline at a height of 47 cm = 108 rows from the lower edge, bind off the middle 23 stitches and then knit both halves separately, binding off in every second row 1x3 stitches, 1x2 stitches.

For reference: shoulders = 35 stitches each, neckline = 33 stitches.

Front to be knitted like the back with the difference in the neckline

At a height of 33 cm = 76 rows from the lower edge to form the neckline, bind off the middle 13 stitches and then knit both halves separately, binding off in every second row 1x5 stitches, 5x1 stitches.
Finish as for the back.

Assembly

Sew all stitches of the right shoulder with a hook along the open stitches. For the left shoulder, sew only the first 15 stitches from the neckline. Bind off the remaining stitches on the right side, connecting only the very last stitches. This will create a slit on the left shoulder.

For the neckline band, cast on 108 stitches on circular needles No. 3 and knit the band as follows:

Row 1: all stitches purl

Row 2: 1 knit, 1 purl

Row 3: 1 purl, 1 knit

Bind off stitches loosely on the wrong side.

Along the armhole, pick up 80 stitches on needles No. 3. Knit the band as follows:

Row 1: all stitches purl

Row 2: 1 knit, 1 purl

Bind off stitches loosely on the wrong side.

For the knitted rose cast on 60 stitches on straight needles No. 4 and knit 4 rows in stockinette stitch. Then knit as follows:

Row 1: *6 knit, turn the left needle counterclockwise 360 degrees, repeat from * to the end.

Row 2: all stitches purl

Row 3: knit 2 together to the end of the row = 30 stitches.

Row 4: knit 2 together to the end of the row = 15 stitches.

Row 5: knit 2 together to the end of the row = 8 stitches.

Gather the remaining stitches on a thread with a needle and pull tightly, securing it. Twist the rose into a spiral and sew it on the wrong side.

For the spiral decoration, chain with crochet hook No. 3 about 25-30 cm long. The spiral is formed in the next row, by knitting three single crochet into each chain stitch.

Sew the rose onto the left side at the shoulder area.
