Halo There Sweater

The Halo There Sweater is worked from the top down in the round beginning with the collar. Once the collar is complete and folded over, you will work back neck shaping rows back and forth. The sweater is then continued in the round and raglan increases are made until the raglan length is achieved. The sleeve and body stitches are then split, and you will work the body of the sweater while the sleeve stitches are held. Lastly, the sleeve stitches are picked back up and the sleeves are worked in the round. **Sizing available** A, (B, C, D), (E, F, G),(H, I) to fit bust measurement of: 28-30,(32-34, 36-38, 40-42),(44-46, 48-50, 52-54),(56-58, 60-62)” or 71-76,(81-86, 91.5-96.5, 101.5-106.5),(111.5- 117, 122-127, 132-137),(142-147, 152-158) cm The top has 8-10 inches (20.5-25.5 cm) positive ease built into the sizes.
