NOTES

This sweater is knit bottom-up with raglan increases. The yarn is held double for the stockinette sections and single for the lace pattern.

The body and sleeves are first knit separately in the round up to the base of the yoke, then joined to continue the raglan.

A few short rows are worked at the back of the neck to improve the fit.

Sleeve instructions are written to be worked with double-pointed needles (DPN), but you can use any other method suitable for small diameters, such as the Magic Loop method or a short circular needle for larger sizes.

As the yoke decreases progress, switch to a shorter circular needle.
