Stitches and techniques used
2x2 rib: k2, p2., k2.
Stockinette stitch: k on the right side, p on the wrong side.
Stranded colorwork: follow the chart– catch the floats when necessary to avoid tension issues.
Gauge – 10 x 10 cm square in stockinette, using 5.0 mm needles = 20 sts x 23 rows.
Execution
Yoke– front, back and the sleeves are worked together in the round at the beginning. Using the color 3794 (Bordeaux), cast-on 80 stitches on the circular needles, join the round and place a stitch marker before the 1st stitch to mark the beginning of the round (BOR). Work in 2x2 rib for 5 cm, then switch to stockinette, make 8 evenly distributed increases on the 1st row and place stitch markers as follows: k 3 for the left front raglan, put marker on the second st, 26 sts for the front, k3 for the right front raglan, put marker on the second st, 12 sts for the right sleeve, k3 for the right back raglan, put marker on the second st, 26 sts for the back, k3 for the left back raglan, put marker on the second st.
For the neckline, work flat as follows: leave the 26 front stitches on hold and work the sleeves, back and raglan stitches in stockinette. Increase 1 stitch on each side of the raglan sts every 2 rows 24 times (48 rows in total). At the same time, for the front neckline, slowly return the stitches on hold, every 2 rows: first 1 st, then 2 sts, 3 sts, 4 sts and the 6 remaining sts. At this point, all stitches should be on the needles. Continue in stockinette in the round for 6 more rounds, then work in stranded colorwork following the chart with the indicated colors. Follow the chart only on the front, back and sleeve sts and knit the raglan stitches with the first yarn from the knit. You should have 280 sts on the needles once all increases have been made.
Separate the front, back and sleeve stitches as follows: k86 sts for the front, place 54 sts on a stitch holder for the first sleeve, cast-on 6 stitches for the underarm, k86 sts for the back, place 54 sts on another stitch holder for the second sleeve, cast-on 6 stitches for the underarm. You should end with 184 sts on the needles. Continue following the pattern from where you’ve stopped. Once the colorwork pattern is done, make 12 evenly distributed decreases and work in 2x2 rib for 7 cm, then bind-off all stitches.
Place the 1st sleeve stitches back on the circular needles, pick up and knit 6 sts on the underarm and continue following the colorwork pattern from where it stopped when you separated the stitches. Once the colorwork is done, continue working with the color 9020. Place a marker in the middle of the 6 underarm stitches (between the 3rd and 4th sts) to mark the beginning of the round. Decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker every 8th round, 10 times in total. When all the increases have been made, work in 2x2 rib for 3 cm and bind-off all stitches.
Make the second sleeve the same way.
