Kodachi Sweater is a roomy sweater with vertical stripes. The sweater is worked from the top down. First the back section is worked back and forth to shape the slope of the shoulders with increases. Then stitches are picked up and knitted for each shoulder, which are then joined to form the front section. The front and back are joined to form the body, which is worked in the round, then divided into the front and back again to form the side slits. Then stitches are picked up around the neck to work the ribbed mock neck collar. Finally the sleeves are worked, from stitches picked up around the armhole, in the round to the cuff ribbing.

Kodachi Sweater はストライプ模様のハイネックセーターです。ドロップショルダーで身幅はゆったりとしています。編み方は、トップダウンで編んでいきます。まず後ろ身頃の衿から、肩のラインを増し目をしながら往復編みで編み、脇下まで編み進めます。次に左右の肩をそれぞれ別々に拾い目をし、前衿ぐりの増し目をしながら編んだ後、左右をつなげて前身頃を脇下まで編み進めます。そして前身頃と後ろ身頃をつなげて輪にし、身頃を輪編みで編みます。腰の辺りからサイドスリットを入れるため、再び前後に身頃を分けて、それぞれ裾まで往復編みで編みます。衿を拾い目をして輪編みで編み、最後に袖を拾い目をして袖口まで輪編みで編みます。
