Notes

I have literally worn my first Burrafirth of about 6 years ago to death, so I need a new one.

Started one day after the additional skeins had arrived, so there was noch chance I would “forget” my plans and start something different.

1 round more between the stripes and the k1, p1 rounds.

Less increases in the last increase round (I am sticking to the inrease scheme used until here, so I increased after every 9th stitch). But additional incraases after 3rd k1, p1 round.

11x34 = 374 sts after last yoke increase round.
Still not enough width and approx. 4-5cm to go until separation.
“Divided” (by placing markers) into 110 sts per back/front and 77 sts per sleeve, for a few Raglan increases.
Round 5 in Stockinette (after last p1/ k1 round):
Raglan increase (per M1R/ M1R) on body and sleeves
Rd 7: body only
Rd 9: body + sleeves
Rd 11, 13, 15: body only
body: 120+14=134 sts per side, sleeves: 81+13 sts

94 sleeve sts.
Sleeve decreases: row 1/1, 1/11, 2/1, 2/10, 2/19 => 84 sts. Then round 1 in single-colored part and every 8th round.

Old Burrafirth:
Body to underarm at sidelines 40, at center front 34cm. (2cm more would be a good idea.)
Sleeve: 14+28+8 = 50cm. (Perfect.)
