Notes

You will start working around the neck in joined rounds (it’s a raglan style sweater, one piece, no sewing), leaving the holes for the sleeves/armholes, working on the body and finishing with the sleeves.
The pattern is designed for a cropped length, but you can easily extend it by following the guidelines in the ‘Body’ section.
If you prefer longer sleeves, refer to the instructions in the ‘Sleeves’ section of the pattern.
