The Centaur sweater is a soft and fitted turtleneck sweater perfect for both business and a comfy day on the couch. The sweater is knitted top-down in the modern fashion. After a mockneck is formed, German short rows are used to create shoulder wedges, whereafter increases are worked to create the yoke, until the the sleeves are ready to be separated and worked individually. The body is worked with decreases to mimic a narrower waist but can easily be left out if needed. The sleeves are worked with increases to create a modern bishop sleeve.

Size Guide
The Centaur Sweater is constructed with a negative ease between -10 to 0. This is done to create a tight fitted Blouse as knitted fabrics are very stretchable. If you choose too big of a size, you will not get the same fit as displayed in the picture above. Therefore, if you for instance have a bust circumference of 103 cm size 5 is recommended, as it will give a negative ease of -3 cm. If you have a 125 cm bust size, I would recommend size 7 as it gives a negative ease of -5.
I have knitted a size 4 and my chest measures 100 cm. giving me an ease of – 6.
