Instructions
Transfer the molds to wax paper to use as reference when making the piece. Pay attention to the arrows on the measurements chart indicating the direction of the work. Knit all panels flat.
Back: cast-on 80 sts with the 4.0 mm needles and Aloe Vera in the color Mustard and work in 2x2 rib for 10 cm, following chart 1. On the last row make 1 increase on each end, ending with 82 stitches. Change to 5.0 mm needles and work in stockinette, following chart 2 and the st repeat for 43 cm, then work in the established st pattern following chart 4 for 5 more cm. At 48 cm from the CO edge, separate the raglan sts as follows: 3 raglan sts (chart 3), 76 sts (chart 4), 3 raglan sts (chart 3). Follow the charts and decrease for the raglan shaping as follows: every 2 rows, decrease 2 sts (5x), then 1 st (17x), 3 sts away from the edge. At 67 cm from the CO edge, reserve the 28 remaining sts on a st holder to work on them later.
Front: same as the back.
Left sleeve: cast-on 38 sts with the 4.0 mm needles and Aloe Vera in the color Mustard and work in 2x2 rib for 8 cm. Change to the 5.0 mm circular needles and work in stockinette stitch. At 10 cm from the CO edge, make 1 st on each edge every 6 rows, 13 times in total- you should end with 64 sts. Knit until the panel measures 54 cm, then separate the raglan stitches as follows: 3 raglan sts (chart 3), 58sts (chart 4), 3 raglan sts (chart 3). Follow the charts and decrease for the raglan shaping as follows: every 2 rows, decrease 2 sts (3x), then 1 st (18x), 3 sts away from the edge. At 73 cm from the CO edge, reserve the remaining 16 sts on a st holder to work on them later.
Right sleeve: same as the left sleeve.
Collar: place the sts on hold back on the 4.0 mm needles as follows: 28 sts (back), 16 sts (left sleeve), 28 sts (front), 16 sts (right sleeve)- 88 sts in total. Knit the collar in 2x2 rib for 10 cm, following chart 1. BO all sts in pattern.
Assembling: using a tapestry needle and Aloe Vera in the color mustard, seam the shoulders and collar. Attach the sleeve to the body (19 cm on each side of the body). Seam the sides of the body (43 cm), the sleeves and cuff (54 cm).
