Notes

I don’t know how I made it but I used 3 skeins less than that was asked, even if the sleeves are 9 cms (about 3.6 in) longer!!!
I didn’t knit all 20 cms (about 8 in) for the neck, but only 12 cms (about 4.8 in).

Raglan sleeves are not my favourite style of sleeves because I have to rack myself brains to understand how i can get them with the body without mistake. But when it’s done it’s the better way to knit a jumper!!
