Myrrine sweater is worked seamlessly in the round, from the bottom up to the armholes. The body and sleeves are worked separately. Some short rows are added to the back of the sweater for a better fit, before joining body and sleeves for working the yoke to the neck edge. After last decrease round in the yoke, some short rows are added again across the back of the neck, to raise it higher than the front for the proper fit of the garment. The sweater is intended to be worn with approximately 10.25 cm / 4” positive ease, however the sleeves are relatively skinny, to counterbalance the loosely fitted body.

Don’t forget, you can knit the body and sleeves to desired length, or decrease some stitches at the neck edge (before knitting the neckband) for a narrower neckline to your taste.

The pattern contains schematics, charts and written instructions, photo and video tutorials. It has been professionally tech edited and test knitted.
