SLEEVES
Rep Rounds 2-3 until you reach the desired length, finish with Round 2 this way:
First of all you should measure the width of your arm and chain a multiply of 3, the number of ch sts depends on your measurement. I crocheted 33 chains, sc in next ch-1 space, * ch-1, sc in next ch-1 space **, rep these steps to the middle of the top (to the next sleeve), ch-33, sc in next ch-1 space, finish the round, join with sl st to the 1st ch
Round 1: ch-3, turn, sc in next ch-1 space, (* ch-3, sc in next ch-1 space ** rep from * to ** to the sleeve, “skip next 2 chs, ch-3, sc in next ch ” “, rep from “ to “” to the body part) rep once, in the end of the round ch-1, join with dc to the 1st ch
Round 2: * ch-3, sc in next ch-3 space ** rep from * to ** to the end of the round ch-1, join with dc to the 1st ch
NOTE: the number of 3 chains spaces must be a multiple of 2
Crochet 10 rounds of 3 chains spaces, skip a round of 3 chains spaces, crochet a round of flowers, then skip 3 rounds of 3 chains spaces and start crocheting flowers:
Round 1: * sc in next sc, ch-3, dc3tog in the1st sc, ch-5, sl st in the 1st ch to form a circle, turn, (ch-3, dc2tog into the circle, ch-3, sl st into the circle) rep twice, ch-3, dc3tog into the circle, sc in next sc of the grid, ch-3 ** rep from * to ** to the end of the round
Skip 3 rows of the grid and crochet the third round of flowers.
SHOULDERS STRAPS
Mark the places for the shoulders straps. Connect the thread to the marked place:
Row 1: ch-3, dc2tog in the same place, ch-1, skip next st, dc2tog in next st, dc in the same place
Row 2: ch-2, turn, sc in next ch-1 space, ch-1, sc in the top of ch-3
Row 3: ch-3, turn, dc2tog in next ch-1 space, ch-1, dc2tog in next ch-1 space, dc in the 1st ch
Rep Row 2-3 until you reach the desired length. I crocheted 12 rows of dc2tog, connect the strap to the back by sl st
Almost done!

Make a row of triple picots around the bottom, neckline, and armholes
