I am a slender person with broad shoulders who doesn’t like a lot of positive ease. I find that if I knit a sweater with the correct amount of ease that I want, the sleeves feel like they’re in my armpit (I think because where the underarm begins is literally in my armpit rather than on the side of my torso centimeters below my armpit, as it should be).
For raglan sweaters, is the fix to knit more increases and more rows, and then when I separate for sleeves do the stitch decreases I need to get the ease I want? Or do I not need to do more increases but just more rows?
Right now I’m knitting the Arctic Light Sweater by Veronika Lindberg and the finished garment measurements don’t include raglan depth, so I’m trying to figure out if I should knit a size small until I separate for sleeves and then do decreases till I’m at the stitch count for xs sweater
