Elodie Sweater is a raglan top. It is worked from top to bottom. After the neckband is worked, German Short Rows are worked across the upper back to give a good fit. Elodie Sweater is worked from the neck and down to the armholes, and then the sleeves are separated from the body. The body is then finished. Both sleeves are worked individually with an I-cord at the bottom.

If you want to ease the difficulty level, you can replace Italian cast on and Italian bind off with a more basic cast on or your preferred cast on / bind off method.
