Description of the work:
Knitting the bolero starts from the back. Cast on 60 stitches and knit 3.5 cm lazy stitch. Then it will be knitted in the following way: 8 stitches lazy stitch, 44 stitches in jersey, 8 stitches in lazy stitch up to the required length of the back part minus 2.5 cm in which all the stitches will be knitted in lazy stitch.
In continue, leave on a helpful needle 22 stitches for the side 1 front, 16 stitches from the center are closed, 22 stitches for the second side front.
The front parts are knit separately with short rows (only knitted tape with jersey point).
The number of stitches for the front side is divided as follows: 10 stitches lazy point for sleeve elastic, the other 12 stitches are divided into 3 equal parts and are knit as follows:
Row 1 is knit 4 stitches, returns the work and knits back, after it will knit 8 stitches , the work returns, after that will knit all those 12 stitches panna to elastic sleeve, we return the work. In the next 5 rows will knit lazy point all stitches including stitches that form the elastic sleeve.
Repeat to the desired length of the front part. We get about 9 folds with lazy point. Similarly knit and the second part.
The edges of the front parts are sewn by the lateral edges of the rear part.
Bottom edges, the edges of the neck and sleeves are finished with the help of the crochet and the Pico pattern.
The bolero is embellished according to the fantasy of any mother.
