Simple Set-in Sleeve Cardigan
Simple Set-in Sleeve Cardigan Calculated by the Percentage Method
The pattern is generated so that you can use any size knitting needle with any weight yarn.
From the website:
“The percentage method of creating a sweater pattern uses the chest measurement plus an allowance for ease of fit as a basis for all other measurements. The chest measurement is treated as the 100%; all other measurements are some portion of that measurement. “
“This is a pattern for working the body of the sweater as three pieces: front-left, front-right and back. The sleeves are worked as separate pieces. Each piece is worked from the bottom or cuff to the top of the piece. The front and back are sewn or grafted together at the shoulders. The length of each sleeve is sewn or grafted to form a tube. Then the top of the sleeve is eased into the armhole and sewn or grafted to the body.”
