THE PATTERN AT A GLANCE:
A cardigan with no button holes, knit top down raglan with a-line body shape, wide upper sleeves that taper to wrists without ribbed cuffs, and applied i-cord ties with a scalloped hem.

Yarn: any worsted weight held double. I used 4 skeins (about 400m) of Wool of the Andes in the color Grass

Needles: circular 9mm (US 13) + same-size crochet hook

Gauge: 11 sts and 14 rows = 10cm (4”) in stockinette, held double on 9mm, measured after blocking.

Size: Made to fit my tall 5yo with a 67cm chest but can be adapted. I started with her neck opening and then did raglan increases until I achieved her waist circumference (add fronts and backs together to get that number). And I knit the sleeves and body to her length. With those measurements, you can adapt for any body. This tutorial is helpful for teaching raglan and especially about how to custom fit to your size.

Finished, blocked measurements: Chest 74cm (29”), widening to 82cm (32¼“) at the hem. Length 37cm (14½”) from the back neck, scallop included. Sleeve 24cm (9½“) from the underarm, or 43cm (17”) from the back neck, tapering from 32cm (12½”) at the top to a 20cm (8”) cuff. The neck opening measures 14cm (5½“) across laid flat, and each tie is 42cm (16½”). The hem is 8cm wider than the chest.
