Hello Everyone!
Thank you for waiting, here is the Complete Seamless V Neck Raglan Sweater!
This is a great sweater for spring.
There is a math you have to do for making a plan, if you don’t understand it, please let me know.
If you want me to find out your cast on #, you need to make a swatch, and give me your gauge #s and your neck measurement.

YARN: YARNSPIRATIONS CARON LATTE CAKES #5
NEEDLE: 5 MM & 4 MM
SWATCH: 4” X 4” = 18 STS X 25 ROWS
NECK ROUND OPENING: 17”
GAUGE
4” VS 17” = 18 STS VS [X STS]
4X = 17 X 18
X = 17 X 18 / 4
X = 76.5
MUST BE MULTIPLE OF 6, SO ROUND NECK CAST ON # IS 78
78 / 6 = 13 --- MY MAGIC (BASE) # IS 13
V NECK CAST ON # IS: WHOLE ROUND NECK CAST – (MAGIC # X 2): 78 – (13X2) = 52
MY V NECK CAST ON IS 52
SET UP ROW (WS): ALL PURL, ADD MARKERS
P2 [MA], P (MAGIC # - 2), [MB], P (MAGIC # X 2), [MC], P (MAGIC # - 2), [MD], P2 = TOTAL OF YOUR CAST ON #
MINE: P2, [MA], P11, [MB], P26 [MC], P11, [MD], P2 = TOTAL OF 52 STS
V NECK INC TOTAL ROWS: [{MAGIC # X 2 – (2X2)} /2] X 4:
MINE: (13X2 – 2X2)/2 X 4 = 44 ROWS
SWATCH: 4” X 4” = 18 STS X 25 ROWS
4” VS [X”] = 25 ROWS VS 44 ROWS
4 X 44 = 25X
X = (4 X 44) / 25
X = 176 / 25
X = 7.04”
THIS NUMBER MEANS, I WILL HAVE 7” LENGTH FROM TOP TO MY V NECK ENDS, SO IF YOU DON’T LIKE THIS LENGTH, EITHER TOO SMALL OR TOO BIG, NOW IS THE LAST CHANCE YOU NEED TO START ALL OVER IT AGAIN!!
SLEEVES, FRONT & BACK INC TOTAL ROW: UNTIL YOU REACH TO YOUR ARMPIT
IR1(RS): K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MA], M1R, K1, [SMA] K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MB], M1R, K1, [SMB], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MC], M1R, K1, [SMC], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MD] M1R, K1, [SMD], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST, M1R, K1
IR2(WS): ALL PURL
IR3(RS): K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MA], M1R, K1, [SMA] K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MB], M1R, K1, [SMB], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MC], M1R, K1, [SMC], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MD] M1R, K1, [SMD], K UNTIL END
IR4(WS): ALL PURL
REP IR1 TO IR4 UNTIL V NECK SHAPE IS DONE
AFTER V NECK SHAPE IS DONE, CONNECT FRONT PARTS, BUT TRANSFER HALF STS ON TO RIGHT NEEDLE TO CREATE THE NEW BEGINNING
IR3(RS): K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MA], M1R, K1, [SMA] K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MB], M1R, K1, [SMB], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MC], M1R, K1, [SMC], K1, M1L, K UNTIL LAST 1 ST BEFORE [MD] M1R, K1, [SMD], K UNTIL END
IR4(RS): ALL KNIT
FIRST IR3, YOU WILL ADD 1 ST IN BETWEEN V NECK, THEN CONNECT
REP IR3 & IR4 UNTIL IT REACHES ARMPIT, FINISH ON IR4
CONNECT THE BODY
ALL KNIT, ADD 4 ~ 8 STS EACH BOTH SIDE / I ADDED 8 STS EACH FOR BOTH SIDE
KNIT UNTIL YOUR DESIRE LENGTH
CHANGE THE NEEDLE TO 4 MM
RIB: (K1, P1) UNTIL YOUR DESIRE LENGTH
CAST OFF
TRANSFER ALL SLEEVE STS ON TO NEEDLE
SR1: KNIT 10 STS UP (NEW CAST + 2 EXTRA), AND KNIT UNTIL LAST ORIGINAL 1 ST
SR2: SSK (LAST ORIGINAL ST + 1ST KNIT UP), KNIT 8 ST, K2TOG (LAST KNIT UP ST + FIRST ORIGINAL ST)
SR3: AFTER THIS, ALL KNIT UNTIL YOUR DESIRE LENGTH
SR4: (K2TOG)
CHANGE THE NEEDLE TO 4 MM
RIB: (K1, P1) UNTIL YOUR DESIRE LENGTH
STRETCHY CAST OFF
V-NECK
KNIT UP: MULTIPLE OF 2 + (1 MID ST)
NR1: (K1, P1) UNTIL 1 LAST ST BEFORE MID ST, SLIP 2 STS KNITWISE, K1, PSSO, (K1, P1) UNTIL END
