Lauro Sweater is a raglan pullover with a lace motif running along the raglan lines and flowing through the body. It is inspired by the structural beauty of lauro leaves, whose Mediterranean perfume evokes summer.

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, allowing you to easily adjust the length of both the body and the sleeves. The neckband is worked last by picking up stitches along the neckline. Short rows are used to shape the neckline.

This pattern is graded with inclusive sizing in mind, designed to fit actual bust sizes from 76 cm / 30 inches to 168 cm / 66 inches. Measurements are given in both cm and inches.
