Pattern Notes
Adding the edging to the body means working a post stitch into the stitches along the seam. Insert the hook to mimic the post stitches worked on either side.

This pattern is crocheted side to side so that the sides of the rows become the body opening of the finished garment, while the first and last rows will be sewn to become the sleeve openings.

Pattern is written for size S/M, changes made for L/XL, 2X/3X and 4X/5X are in parentheses.

To customize this pattern chain a multiple of 2.

Chain-4 at the beginning of row counts as first double
crochet and chain 1.

Chain-1 at the beginning of round does not count as
a stitch.

Whipstitch or mattress stitch can be used for seaming.

When adding the edging to the body opening, work
into the stitches at the seam to maintain pattern.
