Simple Drop Sleeve Gansey Pattern 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 one piece starting from the bottom. The sleeves are worked from the top down starting with stitches picked up from around the armhole.”
