The sleeves start with the same rib and an 8-round colour band, then are increased up to the underarm. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke, knitted from a 44-round chart with five decrease rounds. The neck is 6 rounds of 1×1 rib, then 6 rounds of stocking stitch in fjord blue that roll over. The underarm stitches are grafted.
