Description from Knitty.com:

Note: The sample sweater (Size 2) was knit using two skeins, but they were barely sufficient; three skeins are recommended to ensure that you will have enough to knit a swatch and still complete the sweater.

This modified drop-shoulder pullover is worked in the round to the armholes, and then worked back and forth to the shoulders; after the shoulders are joined, stitches for the sleeves are picked up around the armholes and worked downward to the cuffs, meaning that sleeve length can be adjusted easily if necessary.
