Sleeve Length measured from Armhole: 35 (40, 45) cm or 13.75 (15.75, 17.75) inches + cuff
If a tighter cuff is desired, for example in a man’s sweater, consider 22 stitches per 10 cm in the calculation.
The width of the bottom band (half the circumference) = 45 (50, 55, 60) cm or 18 (20, 22, 24) inches
Work any required increases in the first row after the ribbed bottom band is completed.
Depending on the chosen width and length, the amount of yarn required changes accordingly. Therefore, the quantities mentioned above are only a recommended suggestion.
CONSTRUCTION NOTES
This pullover is worked from bottom to top. The Body is worked in the round on circular needles up to the underarm and then set aside. Then, two Sleeves are worked, each in the round, and then positioned within the armholes. A longer circular needle is used to work the Body and Sleeves in the round with decreases at four locations where the Body meets the Sleeves. Lastly, the neckband is worked.

4 mm (US 6)
3,5 mm (US 4) for the bands
