Notes

To make this short sleeve version with a heavier yarn/different gauge I did the following:

Made Size A, using 3 & 5 US needles

For the raglan increases did an increase round every other round to 58 sleeve stitches.

Knit body to 11” and then 1” 2x1 rib with 3US.

CO 7 underarm stitches when dividing body/sleeves.

For sleeves, using 5US knit 9 rounds, next round dec 2 stitches, knit to 3 in, Switch to 3US, 1” 2x1 rib.
