The Langø Sweater is worked from the top down, and the yoke is shaped by raglan increases. First, you cast on stitches for back of the neck, shoulders as well as a single stitch at either side of the front. Then you work raglan increases while casting on at the front to shape neckline. Continue, working raglan increases in the round until reaching the armholes, where the yoke is divided. Now work sleeves and body separately. Finally, pick up and knit stitches along neckline and work the neckband.
