Un grand arc-en-ciel

Description

The rainbow family is growing :) Un grand arc-en-ciel is a sweet, simple (yet a little bit magical) sweater for the big girls who would want to taste the super powers of the rainbow!

CONSTRUCTION 
This circular-yoke sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. First some short rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck and then the striped rounded yoke is knitted top down to sleeve separation. (To a better visualization of the striped yoke part, charts are offers for each size). 
Sleeve sts are placed on hold to work the body first down to the hem. Then sleeves sts are worked top down to end. 
If you don’t feel comfortable knitting in the round on small diameters, you’ll find another detailed method: once you’re done with the yoke, work the sleeves flat, then sew them before knitting the rest of the body.

SIZES 
XS (S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL). 
Bust circumference of the finished garment: approximatively 85.5 (91.5, 97.5, 104.5, 114, 118.5, 128.5) cm / 33.6” (36”, 38.4”, 41.1”, 44.9”, 46.6”, 50.6”)

GAUGE 

18 sts and 25 rounds = 4” (10 cm) in St st using US 7 (4.5 mm) needles. 
Take time to make sure you obtain the right gauge (especially the same stitches number, you will be able to adapt the length if the round number is different) and switch to another needle size if needed.
