This pattern has been technically edited and tested.

An addictive and fast project.

The sweater is worked from the top down, beginning with 1x1 rib for the double folded neckband. The yoke is then worked in the round, followed by back shaping using German short rows. Depending on your chosen size, you may/may not work raglan increases to the underarm. The sleeve stitches are set aside and the body is worked in the round to the hem. Instructions are written for 2 sleeve options that are worked in the round: balloon sleeves and straight sleeves with slight shaping.

SIZE GUIDE

To pick the correct size, measure yourself with a measuring tape around your bust. The recommended ease is 10 to 20 cm / 4 to 7¾”.

Please note that the finished measurements can only be achieved if the sweater is knitted in the correct gauge.
