LASH LASH SWEATER is a soft and delicate sweater with a timeless and elegant style. The design features a beautifully rounded neckline, classic raglan sleeves, and a subtly curved bottom edge, giving the sweater a harmonious and feminine drape.
The sweater is knitted from top to bottom, ensuring a comfortable fit and allowing for easy length adjustment to your preferences. A classic design that combines comfort and aesthetics.
You start by knitting the neckline trim, then work short rows to lengthen the back. Next, the sweater is knitted in the round through the yoke, body, and sleeves. Finally, short rows are worked at the bottom of the body to form the rounded hem.

The amount of positive ease preferred varies from person to person. It is advisable to measure some of your favorite sweaters to choose the correct size.
I recommend a positive ease of 20 to 40 cm.
For my light version with the dark blue pattern, I chose a positive ease of 37 cm.
