The Carlotta sweater is worked from the top down in a slip stitch pattern. First, the left and right shoulders are worked separately. Then, stitches are picked up to work the back. After that, stitches are picked up to work the right and left fronts, with increases to shape the V-neck. German Short Rows are used in both the front and back to ensure a comfortable fit at the shoulders. Once all parts are completed, they are joined to work the body in the round. Next, stitches are picked up to work the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up to work the V-neckline in a 1x1 rib, knitted in the round using three different colors.

The Carlotta Sweater has a relaxed fit and is designed to have approx. 15 cm [6 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 cm [6 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 / 47¼-51¼ 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 garment to fit. Using the diagram with the finished garment measurements can be a helpful reference when deciding which size to select.
