The Chantal Sweater Chunky is worked top-down in a slip stitch pattern. It starts with the back, followed by two separate shoulders. Short rows are used to shape the shoulders for a better fit. Once all parts are completed, the stitches are joined under the arms to work the body in the round. Next, stitches are picked up along the armholes to work the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neck edge to work the roll neck in the round.
* The sweater in red shown in the photo is made with Puno col.334 by Gepard Garn [SIZE-M].
* The sweater in beige shown in the photo is made with LUFT col. L11 by Woolfolk [SIZE-M].

The Chantal Sweater Chunky has an oversized fit and is designed to have approx. 30 cm [12 in] of positive ease. This means the garment's measurements will be approx. 30 cm [12 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 sweater to fit. Using the diagram with the finished garment measurements can be a helpful reference when deciding which size to select.
