The LISA sweater is worked from top to bottom in stockinette stitch and stripes in purl rows all over the body and on the sleeves. After the collar, shortened rounds are knitted to get a nice roundness on the neck and raglan increases are made in 4 places. When the yoke is knitted, the work is divided so that the sleeves can then be knitted separately. Front and back pieces are brought together and knitted in the round with a circular needle after stitches have been placed under the armholes. The sleeves and body are finished in rib knitting with the same needle to get a fairly straight shape. If you want a slightly tighter cuff, choose a thinner needle. The shirt has a loose fit and should have a positive ease around 20 cm more than your bust circumference.
