Sammensat 24 C is a raglan blouse/cardigan worked from the top down with the option of adjusting the length of the sleeves and the body. It can be worked with an easy stitch pattern but also be customized to your liking. An option for working bustdarts is included.
This is a perfect thin basic compound raglan blouse/cardigan.

The work starts with cast-on stitches for an I-cord for a firm neckline, and afterward stitches are picked up along the I-cord to work the neck with short rows for a lowered neckline. The increases for yoke and sleeves create curved raglan lines and this construction gives a better fit and prevents unflattering bulks at the body and underarms. There’s an easy Double Seed pattern to add texture and it is also used for working the button bands along the front.
