NOLA SWEATER

CONSTRUCTION: The Nola Sweater is knitted seamlessly from the top down. First, the back is worked in stockinette stitch, followed by the two front pieces. Then, stitches are picked up along the shoulders and the work is joined in the round. Raglan increases follow, before the stitches are divided into body and sleeves. The sleeves are knitted in the round with regular decreases. Finally, the neckband is worked and all edges are neatly finished with a reinforced bind-off.

SIZE GUIDE: The Nola Sweater should be knitted with 6-20 cm of positive ease in relation to your bust circumference. The smaller sizes have up to 20 cm positive ease, and this gradually decreases for the larger sizes. Choose the size according to the following bust circumferences: 80-85^XS | 85-90^S | 90-95^M | 95-100^L | 100-110^XL | 110-120^2XL | 120-130^3XL | 130-140^4XL | 140-150^5XL cm. If your bust circumference is 109 cm, you should choose size XL.
