Pattern notes
This sweater is knit in one piece in the round from the top down with short row shaping at the back of the neck and make 1 (m1) increases spaced through the yoke along with colorwork section. Sleeves are placed on holders while the rest of the body is worked. Sleeve sts are then placed back on needles and finished in the round. Sweater is made to have about 6” of positive ease, plenty of room to grow into!
