Original pattern in danish here
I just loved this pattern, so thought I would translate it as it is quite easy, and i like my patterns in english. (haven't tranlated one before though) Hope this is ok for the designer. If not please contact me on ravelry (aniaanka).

Pattern
Cast on (44) 46 (48) 50 (52) st on needle 7mm.
Knit in rib (k1, p1) - back and forth- for 7 cm
Change to needle 9mm and start knitting garter st. (knit all st on every row) - at the same time increase to (54) 56 (58) 60 (62) st evenly distributed across.
Knit until the arm measures 27 cm.
Cast on (20) 21 (22) 23 (24) st on both sides = (94) 98 (102) 106 (110) total. (= back and front piece).
(my notes: guess you could cast on more st here for a longer sweater)
Knit for 9) 10 (12) 13 (15) cm across all st. (my notes: maybe one could knit longer here for a less wide neck opening?)
On the next row cast off 4 st for the neck.
Separate the back and front (leaving one part on a scrap of yarn or stitch holder) and knit each part/piece separately. (check here for a drawing).
Knit until each piece measures (28) 30 (30) 32 (32) cm from separation.
Cast on 4 new st between the back and front parts, and knit over all (94) 98 (102) 106 (110) st.
Knit for (9) 10 (12) 13 (15) cm.
Bind off (20) 21 (22) 23 (24) st (loosely) on both sides, and knit for 20 cm over the remaining (54) 56 (58) 60 (62) st.
Change to needle 7mm and knit in rib (k1, p1) - at the same time decrease evenly to (44) 46 (48) 50 (52) st on the first row.
Knit ribbing for 7 cm, cast off.
Finishing: Sew the sides and arms. Sew on button. Crochet a ch st row for closing, and sew it on over the button (see photo)
Bottom rib: Using 7mm circular needle, pick up 1 st in each "ridge" along the bottom edge. Knit in 1x1 rib for 9 cm, cast off.
My less-then impressive schematic drawing (clearifying for me at least) will come soon. :)
Hope this helps! :)
