Top Body and Half Sleeve build together

Hexagon: 15 rounds in total for one part.,needs 2 panels (pic A)

Rd 1.Magic circle or ch 3.

Rd 2.Start with ch 4, 3 x dc,ch 2 sp,rep.5 times more and finish with 2xdc,sl st at the top of the ch 2 Total 6 loops.Mark the 6 loops.This are the corners of the hexagon.

Rd 3.From where is finished rd 2,make ch 4 and go to the next loop (where is the marker) and make in the same loop   ( 3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc)  then ch 2 and go to the next loop and rep .

At the end of the rd last group make 2 x dc and join  at the top with sl st with the first ch 2 made at the begin.

Rd 4.From where is finished make ch 4,go to the next loop and make  (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc )

then ch 2 ,in the next loop make one 3xdc,ch 2 and rep.Last group 2xdc join sl st at the top of the ch 2 made at the beg.

Rd 5.Always move the marker keep the corners .With each round made will increase the loops between corners. (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ),ch2,  (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ),ch2, , (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ) and rep.

Rd 6.The same as rd 5 but you will have 3 loops between groups

(3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ),ch2, , (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ),ch2, , (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ) ch2,  (3 x dc, ch 2,3 x dc ) and rep. till rd 15.

Front top & Neck

Step 1: Each panel height:18(48cm) join together one panel as pic B.

Step 2:The 2 panels (as shown in pic A) sew back only.

Step3: Make 2 round more ( 3xdc ,ch2 )  along front and waist only .(See pic B)

Step 4: Work in front 4 rds more.. Start from neck with (3xdc ,ch 2 sp)  and decrease one group of 3DC from neck  at each rd.for the rest 3 rds

Sleeve (see pic C)

Continue work for sleeve.It will be almost half of the sleeve made by the hexagon.

Work circular (back and forward )for the rest of the sleeve. Approx 16 loops to start 3 xdc ,chain one space for the next 4 rd.

From rd 5 - 3xdc,ch 2 sp up to rd 21.From rd 22 multiply at the begin of the rd ,make in the same loop 2 groups of 3xdc,ch 2.and multiply one more group in the same away at the half .Make another 3 rd  (no increasing after rd 22).Total will be 25 rds.

This will make the sleeve more flare to the wrists . You can make the sleeves shorter or longer by reducing or increasing the number of rds.

Bottom.

Starts with 10 squares (See Scheme)

Squares

Magic circle (or 4 chains joined)

Rd 1.In loop 8 dc ,with ch 3 between as space.

Rd 2 .Beg: ch 2, then 2 x dc in the same loop , next loop 3 x dc , ch 3 sp and rep.

Rd 3 .After  rd 2 there are 8 loops. Mark  4 loops as corners. In each corner marked- group of (3xdc,ch4 sp,3xdc)Then (between corners) ch 4,and sc  into the next group after corner.(see scheme where is X marked has to be sl st) then ch 4 skip one group of 3xdc,and go to the next corner.

Rd 4: In each corner  group of (3xdc,ch2 sp,3xdc ) then ch 2,3xdc,ch2,3xdc.and rep.

After the 10 squares are finished, sew them  to the waist.

When you join the squares you need to pull the needle through the half stitch  BLO(from the back edge) and join with the other half of stitch. The 10 squares must be the same length with the top..

After the 10 squares are fixed work along them 24 rd more .Each rd in each loop 3xdc,ch2.
