Notes
The lace parts in the pattern are based on the amazing work by Hitomi Shida, found in the book Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible.
The garment is worked from bottom up, flat on straight needles, all parts separately, then sewn together at the seams.
Charts are to be read from bottom up. Odd numbered rows are right side rows, and even numbered rows are wrong side rows, but all symbols depict right side. The first and the last stitches are selvedge stitches, they are NOT shown on the chart. All increases and decreases are marked with light blue colour for your convenience.
The bobbles are worked with the crochet hook (see the Stitch Glossary below).
