Pattern Notes:
Pullover – The pullover is worked from the bottom up and features striped, as well as a cute and comfortable neck opening. A schematic is provided, on the last page, to assist in assembling the top. The edge at the top of the sweater is crochet with single crochet st. As an alternate, one can knit a finish by picking up sts along the top and binding off purlwise in the next row.

Pants – Each leg is worked separately. Then all stitches are joined for the top portion, which is worked in the round. The inside seam is sewn using a mattress stitch.
