Attention:  due to knitting along the oblique and shortened rows, it is impossible to calculate the exact data of the pattern according to the density of knitting.
Therefore, the measurements were taken from a finished model, laid out on a horizontal surface.

Description of knitting top with knitting needles:

BACK: dial 78 points and knit with a pattern A. Due to the different lengths of the loops from the right and left edges through 126 p. from the set of rows, the total length of the model from the right edge is 62 cm, and from the left edge 40 cm. After 126 p. go to pattern B, while doing the shortened rows as follows: knit 3 p., turn the work with a double loop and knit 1 out. row in the opposite direction. In the next front row, knit 6 p. According to the pattern, turn the work with a double loop and knit 1 out. a row in the opposite direction, thus continuing to perform shortened rows and in each front row knit 4 times 3 points more, then put off all the loops.

After 54 p. from the beginning of the yoke close for the shoulders the first 12 points from the beginning of the circular row and the last 12 points of the row = 120 points. Knit 1 circle. with thread B, in this case, knit together every 3rd and 4th stitches together = 90 stitches. Knit a collar with pattern B in rows in the forward and reverse direction. With a collar height of 54 p. close all loops with thread A.
