Gauge 21 sts × 32 rows = 10 × 10 cm (4 × 4 in) in motif pattern after washing and blocking. Recommended needle size: 4 mm (US 6) for the main fabric and 3,5 mm (US 4) for rib edges.

Procedure:
First, cast on stitches for the back, then work back and forth with short rows to shape the upper back while knitting the pattern. Next, stitches are picked up for the right and left shoulder, which are worked separately. The shoulders are joined to form the front by casting on stitches for the front. The front and back are then joined while casting on stitches under the arm. The body is finished with a twisted rib hem.
The sleeve stitches are picked up, the pattern from the front and back and along the sides of the body are extended onto the sleeve, and decreases are worked along the sleeve underside. The sleeve is finished with a twisted rib cuff. The sweater is designed with a positive ease of 19–23 cm (7½–9 in).
