The sweater has a positive ease of around 10-15 cm / 3.9-5.9″. If you want the sweater to
have a more tight fit, you can knit a smaller size.
A pattern is worked across the 14 middle stitches on the sleeves (see chart and elaboration
on page 5).
BODY

Using circular needle 4.5 mm (US 7), co 96 sts. Place a stitch marker. Work 4 cm / 1.6″ of rib
stitch (p2, k2) in the round.
Yoke
Change to circular needle 6 mm (US 10) – 80 cm (32″).
Work 1 rnd while preparing the sts for the raglan increases like this:

On the next rnd, increase 4 sts like this:
Increase 1 st at the beginning and 1 st at the end of the rnd (back piece) as well as 2 sts
evenly across the front piece = 100 sts.
