  • Step 1

    Front/back
    Cast on 224(244) sts on 3 mm circular needle and work 2 cm K2, P2 ribbing in the round.
    Change to 3.5 mm needle and cont straight in st st in the round until work measures 34(36) cm from cast on edge. Now beg armhole. Cast off 8(10) sts at both sides with 104(112) sts betw each cast off. Let work rest.

  • Step 2

    Sleeves (both alike)
    Cast on 64(64) sts on 3.5 mm double pointed needles and work st st in the round. Mark 2 sts at beg of rnd and on every 10th (8th) rnd M1 om both sides of marked sts. Cont in this way to 90(98) sts and the cont straight until sleeve measures 44(44) cm. On next rnd cast off 8 (10) sts for armhole by casting off 4(5) sts before and after beg of rnd.

  • Step 3

    Raglan
    Now join body and sleeves on one 3.5 mm circular needle and work in the round across all sts ( 372(400) sts). Work 1 rnd.
    Then work raglan dec on every alternate rnd at the 4 points where sleeves and front/bach meet. Mark 2 sts at each point (i.e. 1 st from sleeve and 1 st from front/back) and dec by knitting 2 sts tog TBL before marked sts and knitting 2 sts tog after marked sts.
    Cont the raglan dec on every alternate rnd 29(33) times = until 60(68) rnds have been worked and 140(140) sts rem. Cast off loosely.

  • Step 4

    Making up
    Sew cast off sts under armholes tog and weave in ends.

    Using Tetsu and 3 mm circular needle pick up and knit approx. 224(244 sts along cast on edge. Knit 3 – 5 rows (work back and forth on the circular needle). Cast off. Sew edge tog at beg of rnd.
