🖤The Chantal Sweater V-neck is worked top-down in a slip stitch pattern, starting with a back-and-forth yoke that includes raglan and V-neck increases. Short rows are used to shape the back neck for a better fit. Once the V-neck is shaped, the stitches are joined, and the yoke is knitted in the round down to the underarms. The sleeve stitches are then placed on hold, stitches are cast on for the underarms, and the body is worked in the round down to the hem. After the body is complete, the held sleeve stitches are transferred back onto the needles to knit the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline and finished with 1x1 ribbing.

🧶Sizes:
XS / S / M / L / XL / 2XL / 3XL
The Chantal Sweater V-neck has a relaxed fit and is designed to have approx. 15-20 cm [6-8 in] of positive ease with slightly reduced ease in larger sizes, to ensure a more comfortable fit. This means the garment's measurements will be approx. 15-20 cm [6-8 in] larger than your actual bust circumference. The sizes XS / S / M / L / XL / 2XL / 3XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 / 85-90 / 90-95 / 95-100 / 100-110 / 110-120 / 120-130 cm [31½-33½ / 33½-35½ / 35½-37½ / 37½-39½ / 39½-43¼ / 43¼-47¼ / 47¼-51 ¼ in].
Before you begin, measure yourself to determine the right size. For example, if your bust circumference is 92 cm [36½ in], you should knit a size M. If you are between sizes, choose the size based on how loose you prefer the top to fit. Using the diagram with the finished garment measurements can be a helpful reference when deciding which size to select.
