CONSTRUCTION NOTES
The pullover is constructed from the bottom up to the armholes in one piece worked in the round. Then, the work is divided into the Front and Back pieces and finished separately by working in rows back and forth. The shoulders are formed using short row shaping and then joined together. Stitches are then picked up around the armhole and the Sleeves are worked to the desired length from the shoulder to the cuff. Lastly, the collar is worked into the neckline.
