Part 2 video tutorial
Front part
Skip one repeat/arch from the back part and attach the yarn between 3rd and 4th dc clusters.
1st row (right side) – sc1, ch3, sk3, [sc1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 7th and 8th dc CL, ch3, trc dec1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 2nd and 3rd dc CL, ch3, sk2, sc1, ch3, sk3, sc1] x 3 + RC3
2nd row (wrong side) – h4ch, dc1, [ch1, sk3, Vst1] to last 4chs; ch1, sk3, dc2 into 1ch + RC1
3rd row = 5th row (back part)
4th row = 6th row (back part)
5th row = 3rd row (back part)
Join the back and front parts together
Slip a last loop of the 5th row (front part) on the crochet hook. You should have 2 loops on your hook.
6th row (wrong side) - sc1 into ch above trc ch of prev.row, sc1 under ch, ch2, trc dec1*, ch2, [sc1 under ch, ch1, sk1, sc1 under ch, ch2, trc dec1*, ch2] to last 3chs; sk1, sc2 + ch19 (for the size XS – ch9 and for the size L – ch29)
Join front and back parts into a ring with the slip stich into the 1st sc ch. Turn the work to the right side of the garment.
Body
1st round – ch1, (ch1, sk4, shell1, sk4, sc1) x 2, [ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3, sc1] x 8 or to underarm, (ch1, sk4, shell1, sk4, sc1) x 2, [ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3, sc1] x 7, ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3 + sl.st.1 into 1st ch
2nd round – ch3, trc1 under ch between 1st and 2nd trc sts, ch2, sc1 under ch, ch1, sk1, sc1 under ch, ch2, [trc dec1*, ch2, sc1 under ch, ch1, sk1, sc1 under ch, ch2] to end; work unfinished trc under ch + sl.st.1 into 4th ch
3rd round – ch5, (trc1, ch1) x 2 into sm.ch, sk3, sc1, [ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3, sc1] to last 4chs; ch1, sk3, (trc1, ch1) x 2 into 1ch + sl.st.1 into 4th ch
4th round – ch2, sc1 under ch, ch2, trc dec1*, ch2, [sc1 under ch, ch1, sk1, sc1 under ch, ch2, trc dec1*, ch2] to end; sc1 under ch + sl.st.1 under 2chs
5th round – ch1, [ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3, sc1] to last repeat; ch1, sk3, shell1, sk3 + sl.st.1 into 1st ch
Repeat the pattern starting from the 2nd round until you crochet to about your waistline, and then use a larger size crochet hook (G) to widen the garment from the bottom.
Neckline
Attach the yarn to the initial foundation chain and work 4 chains to pick up the height of the 1st round.
1st round – ch4, dc1 into sm.ch, ch3, sk2, sc1, dc7 under arch of 3chs, sk2, sc1, ch3, sk2, [Vst1, ch3, sk2, sc1, dc7 under arch of 3chs, sk2, sc1, ch3, sk2] to end + sl.st.1 into 3rd ch
Use a smaller size crochet hook (E)
2nd round – ch2, sc1 under ch, (ch1, dc1) x 7 above dc7 of prev.round, ch1, [(sc1, ch2, sc1) into Vst under ch, (ch1, dc1) x 7 above dc7 of prev.round, ch1] to end + sl.st.1 into chs
3rd round – ch2, sk2, (dc CL1, ch1) x 7, [sc1 under arch of 2chs, ch1, sk2, (dc CL1, ch1) x 7] to end + sl.st.1 into 1st ch
Sleeves
Attach the yarn underarm
1st round – ch4, [sk interval*, sc1, ch3] to 4th round; sc1 under ch between 7th and 8th dc CL, ch3, trc dec1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 2nd and 3rd dc CL, ch3, sk2, sc1, ch3, sk3, sc1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 7th and 8th dc CL, ch3, trc dec1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 2nd and 3rd dc CL, ch3, [sk interval*, sc1, ch3] to end + sl.st.1 into 1st ch
At the end of the 1st round, you should have 18 arches of 3 chs or multiples of 2 arches.
2nd round – ch4, dc1, [ch1, sk3, Vst1] to last 3chs; ch1, sk3 + sl.st.1 into 3rd ch
3rd round – sc1, ch1, sk3, shell1, [sk3, sc1, ch1, sk3, shell1] to end + sl.st.1 above 1st sc ch
4th round = 2nd round (body)
5th round = 3rd round (body)
Decrease
6th round – ch2, sc1 under ch, ch1, trc dec1*, ch1, [sc1 under ch, ch1, sk1, sc1 under ch, ch1, trc dec1*, ch1] to end; sc1 under ch + sl.st.1 under 2chs

I see that you've attached
I see that you've attached the yarn above 4th dc CL instead of 6th one as I suggested. That why you have one extra arch of 3chs (Vst in the 2nd row).

Hi Sana, I'm still cofuse, I
Hi Sana, I'm still cofuse, I did not attach the yarn and this is backpart, I just continue and follow the steps that you told me for the back part. I reviewed it again so I don't know what I'm missing. Pls. advise. Thanks.

Hi Luz,
Hi Luz,
You should have 20 arches of 3 chs (1st row). You are missing one last arch of 3 chs.
1st row – (ch1, sk1, sl.st.1) x 5, ch1, sk1, sc1, [ch3, sc1 under ch between 7th and 8th dc CL, ch3, trc dec1, ch3, sc1 under ch between 2nd and 3rd dc CL, ch3, sk2, sc1, ch3, sk3, sc1] x 4 + RC3 (to work 10 repeats of jasmine st).

Hi Sana, I'm so sorry about
Hi Sana, I'm so sorry about of giving you trouble, You're right I missed the last arch and I fixed it. And when I was on 3rd row , the pattern says "to last 4 chains, I'm supposed to do the (trc1,c1)x3, but as you can see on my picture, I will end up sc1. Pls help. I have 22 Vst1. Do I suppose to have odd Vst1 to have the 3rd row last trc1? Pls. advise. Thank you.

I checked your video, you
I checked your video, you have 17 vst1 so that's an odd # and I have 22vst1. What I'm going to do?

Hi Luz,
Hi Luz,
I think now I know why you keep getting different number of arches of 3chs/Vsts. You try to match the number of arches of the 1st shell with the last shell. To make the pattern work, it is necessary to have an even number of arches of 3 chs or dividable by 2 and odd number of Vsts.
If you work sl.sts to your 6th dc CL, you should have just 1 arch of 3 chs above 1st shell, then 2 arches in between 1st and 2nd shells, [3 arches above next shell, 2 arches in between shells] x 3, and 2 arches above the last shell. To work 10 repeats, you should have 20 arches of 3 chs. Happy crochet!
