The sweater is knitted top-down, starting with a cast-on at the back of the neck. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth. Then both shoulders are worked separately before being joined to form the front yoke. The body is worked in the round in stockinette stitch and is finished with 2x2 rib and 1x1 rib, separated by one round of horizontally oriented sts.

Find your size
The sizes are calculated based on a positive ease of 24–32 cm (around 24 cm for the larger sizes), which is added to your actual chest measurement. The pattern follows chest measurements of:
80–85 (85–90) 90–95 (95–100) 100–110 (110–120) 120–130 cm.

Garment bust circumference minus your chest measurement = positive ease.
Example: Garment bust circumference for size M and chest measurement of 96 cm:
125 – 96 = 29 cm.

The model in the photo has a chest measurement of 83 cm (34 cm of positive ease in the sweater) and is wearing size XS with a full length of 55 cm measured at center back. The sweater is knitted in Aran Tweed (Confetti) and Silk Mohair (3S) from Isager.
