Laula sweater - ENG

ABOUT THE PATTERN
The sweater is knitted from the bottom up. Start with ribbing, then move on to pattern knitting according to the chart. You should knit the chart twice for the long version and once for the short version on the body. After completing the body, divide the work into two parts, front and back. Divide the front as well and decrease for the neck and shape the shoulders. Knit the back to the same length as the front (including the shoulder parts) before decreasing for the neck. Join the shoulder seams while decreasing - I use the three-needle bind off method, but you can also seam at the top. There are good instructional videos for both techniques on YouTube. Pick up stitches for both the neck and sleeves as described in the pattern.
