Gauge: 22 sts and 36 rows in stockinette st on needle size 3½ mm / US 4 = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches.

Procedure
The top is worked in the round, from the top down. Cast on stitches using a temporary crochet cast on, so the size of the neckline can be adjusted subsequently. Short rows are worked across the shoulder and back at the beginning to ensure a good fit. The yoke is worked with increases, made into small stars. These can be omitted. Hereafter the work is divided into body and sleeves, and both are finished separately.
