PATTERN NOTES
This sweater is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up. The shoulders are joined with the three-needle bind off. After assembling the body, stitches for the cowl neck are picked up and worked in the round. Color changes are made using the intarsia method. When switching between colors, bring the old color up and around the new color, preventing any holes from forming in the piece.

Because of the differing nature of Stockinette and Seed stitches, the Stockinette section of the Lower Back and Front will be slightly longer than the Seed Stitch section and will have a curled edge.
