CONSTRUCTION: The Nolasweater is knitted top down. First, the back piece is knitted in stockinette stitch, followed by the front pieces. Next, stitches are picked up along the shoulders, and the yoke is joined in the round. Then, raglan increases are worked before dividing for the sleeves and body. The sleeves are knitted with decreases, followed by the neckline ribbing. All edges are bound off with a reinforced edge.

SIZE GUIDE: The Nolasweater should be knitted with a positive ease of 6-20 cm relative to your bust measurement. Smaller sizes have up to 20 cm of positive ease, and the larger sizes gradually have less ease. Choose your size according to the following bust measurements: 80-85 | 85-90 | 90-95 | 95-100 | 100-110 | 110-120 | 120-130 | 130-140 | 140-150 cm (31-33 | 33-35 | 35-37 | 37-39 | 39-43 | 43-47 | 47-51 | 51-55 | 55-59 inch.). If your bust measurement is 109 cm, you should choose size XL.
