Tension gauge
10x10cm = 18 sts and 26 rows on 5mm needles. Note that the pattern is knitted in the round, so it‘s good to knit the swatch in the round as well.
NOTE: I knit quite tightly so you may need to use a smaller needle size. I recommend knitting a swatch to test the tension.

Method
This sweater is knitted from the bottom up. Both the body and sleeves are knitted in the round. After finishing the body and sleeves, everything is joined together to knit the colourwork yoke. When following the yoke design chart, take care to read the notes as the design changes slightly depending on the size you’re knitting. Beginning of the round is between the left sleeve and back body stitches.
