Specialty Stitch & Technique Key
Invisible join: pull the loop on the hook a little longer, remove the loop from the hook, insert the hook in the 2nd st from the back to front, take the loop through that st. Now continue on to the next round.

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.

Foundation chain counts as round 1

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.

Ch 2 doesn’t count as a stitch.
