The Micaela Sweater is worked from the top down, starting with the yoke. Short rows are used to shape the back and neckline for a perfect fit. Then, the back and front are worked separately. Afterward, the front and back are joined, and the knitting continues in the round. Stitches are picked up around the armholes to work the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up to complete the neckline in the round.


Sizes:

XS / S / M / L / XL / 2XL / 3XL
The Micaela Sweater has an oversized fit and is designed to have approximately 20 cm [7¾ 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 approximately 20 cm [7¾ 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 choose 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 your size based on how loose you prefer the tee to fit. Using the diagram with the finished garment measurements as a reference can be helpful when deciding which size to select.
