Notes
The lower portion of both the back and front is worked using the intarsia method to make vertical stockinette panels. Once the placement of the colors has been established, work all stitches in their matching colors to the end of the colorblock section, twisting yarns around each other on the WS when changing colors to join the panels and avoid leaving holes. Stitch counts and measurements for child’s sizes are listed first followed by adult sizes in brackets.
