Notes

Body: Lengthened 1-1/4”

Sleeves -18” long:
CO 46 st, rib 4”. Increase every 6th row until 76 sts.
Knit straight to 46 cm. Follow cap shaping.

Picked up 166 st for each side of neck and front button band.

Blanket stitch around buttonholes.

Grosgrain ribbon hand sewn under side with buttons.

To firm up the shoulders a bit and keep the sweater from sliding off, I sewed a thin shoulder pad into each one.
