Notes

Knitted from top downwards like a top-down raglan sweater with Prym needles 4mm.

  • cast on 81 stitches
  • closed to the round, resulting in 80 stitches
  • worked 1x1 rib stitch for 5cm / rows 1-13
  • knitted 1 round in stockinette / row 14
  • marked stitches 1 - 12 - 40 - 52 - 80 (= 1) with stitch markers
  • started raglan shaping by adding 1 stitch before and 1 stitch after each marker as seen in the peace not bombs sweater and added the stitch as shown in this make one tutorial
  • worked the raglan scheme from rows 15 - 35
  • cast off of two short and one long raglan part in row 36, kept only the stitches of one long raglan part
  • knitted another 3cm on the remaining raglan part, knitted 2x2 stitches together at the start and end of each knit row
  • cast off
  • removed the stitch markers and sewed in the loose threads

Unfortunatelly, the collar is too loose and the raglan part added too many stitches. Therefore I made a new collar: version 2
