NOTES
This sweater is worked in pieces and seamed. Working on a circular needle and carrying the unused color up the side of work will allow you to begin each new stripe on either a WS or RS row, depending on where the yarn of that color is located.

Work sweater in the stripe pattern as instructed or work stripes changing colors randomly; the stripes are not intended to match at the raglan lines.
