INTRODUCTION
The AF104 Pullover is worked as one-piece flat on circular needles. It is worked flat cuff to cuff. You will begin by casting on for the right cuff. Make the right sleeve and shoulder. You will work increases for the body. You will work the front and back of the body at one time. Then you will split the front and back at the neck hole. You will work on the front of the body until the neck hole shaping is complete. Then you will work the back until the neck hole shaping is complete. Then you will rejoin the front and back stitches together and work the body until you bind off for the left sleeve. You will work the left sleeve then the left cuff and bind off. At this point you will block your garment and lay flat to dry. Then you will seam the side stitches together. Then you will work the neckline. Finally, you will work the bottom hem in a round to complete the pullover. The finished garment as ¾ length sleeves.
