Almost there...

For pattern support please go to the questions thread [here][1]. ***update 04/26: german version added*** *Almost there…* is worked seamlessly from the top down. The striped body is worked in Stockinette stitch with a cute chevron colorwork right before the bottom ribbing. First the neck is shaped by working short-rows back and forth. Then the yoke is worked in the round with raglan increases. When the yoke shaping is complete, the sleeve sts are placed on hold and the underarm sts are cast on, using your preferred cast on method. Then the body is worked in the round to the ribbing with a light A-line shaping. Then sleeve sts are picked up again to work the sleeves top down in the round to the end. As this jumper is worked from the top down it is advisable to try it on from time to time to check the length and overall fit. The length and width of the yoke are easily adjustable by adding/ reducing increases, or adding/ reducing underarm sts.
