10en - ELD - Icelandic Knitted Sweater in Lettlopi

This document provides instructions for knitting a sweater with a raglan sleeve construction. Key steps include: 1. Casting on stitches for the body and knitting in ribbing, then stockinette stitch until the body measures 43-48 cm. 2. Working the sleeves separately by casting on stitches, knitting ribbing, then increasing stitches regularly until the sleeve measures 45-50 cm or 47-53 cm. 3. Joining the body and sleeves into a yoke by knitting all live stitches across the body and sleeves. 4. Continuing in stockinette stitch and optional pattern until the neckband, decreasing stitches at the underarms
