Ingalls is a comfortable and relaxed circular yoke sweater knit from the top down featuring colorwork, lace eyelets and an optional dropped back hem. This sweater is designed to fit with generous positive ease. The sweater pictured is a size M, measuring 52.75” 134 cm at the bust, on a model with a bust measurement of 35” 89 cm, giving 17.75” 45 cm of positive ease. If you want your sweater to have a closer fit you can knit a smaller size, just make sure to check the sleeve circumference of the size you wish to make to ensure a good fit.
