There is a full YouTube tutorial showing size 3 knit from start to finish: https://youtu.be/q9dcIWt1Zys?si=jDamO7SQOz23opnC

This oversized sweater is worked top-down beginning with a double-folded collar. German short rows are used to shape the neckline before continuing into the raglan yoke. Cable details are incorporated along the raglan lines while increases are worked to shape the yoke.

Once the desired yoke depth is reached, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold and stitches are cast on at the underarms. The body is then worked in the round, with the cable detail continuing down the sides of the body. The sleeves are knit one at a time in the round.
