I’m currently having trouble paying through Ravelry, my patterns can be purchased on Boosty (see the link in Source)On this site you pay for the post, it contains a PDF file with the English version of the pattern. I will also send you the pattern via Ravelry so that it will be saved in your library throughout the day. Sorry for the temporary convenience

“Chantilly” sweater - is worked top-down in the round, so you can easily try it on and decide on the length in the process. You start with a circular yoke with a combination of lace and garter stitch.
I recommend positive ease (8-10cm/3-4”) at the bust.
