Emily just wanted the top portion of this sweater and the arms lengthened. She will use it to top off an Elf costume she’s planning on wearing when she sees The Hobbit.

Sleeve - size s. 20 mesh instead of 11 to begin with as she wants the sleeves long.

For body of the sleeve, repeat rows 5-6 3 more times.

Underarm shaping:
Row 12 is 6x
Rows 13-16 repeat rows 11-12 alternately twice

I made the ribbing on the sweater to the size that she was. I decided at that point what size I would follow the directions for. It fits perfectly and she’s happy with it.
