Try picking up a stitch one row below the edge, from the inside (so you're pulling the loop up from the inside of the underarm. You'll want to check that you're not making the outside edge look weird, but sometimes you luck out and can find a loop that works. Basically, try snagging different loops along the edge to see which ones work. It doesn't *have* to be the very edge because, yeah, those loops can pull a lot and have big gaps.
Also, sewing up gaps afterward with the long tail is a time-honoured technique. ;-) So don't worry if that's what you do.
(And a pullover is the same thing as a jumper is the same thing as a sweater - the important bit is 'top-down raglan' which describe the type of construction.)
