Net is a raglan-sleeved sweater knitted flat from the bottom up, with each piece worked separately. The hem, cuffs, and neckline are done in ribbing (2 knit, 2 purl). The mesh stitch is stretchy, so you can comfortably knit it to fit snugly around the body.
You can modify the length of the sweater, but keep in mind that this might require more yarn.
A small top, Summer Cloud Top, made from the same yarn, can be knitted to wear under the Net sweater.
Laines Du Nord Baby Soft yarn was an excellent choice for this project, as it is economical and wonderfully soft when knitted.
