• This sweater is designed with 2 ½ – 4” of positive ease in the bust measurement so that it has a relaxed, comfortable fit.
• The length in the front and back panels differs by 2 ½” with the front being longer than the back.
• This garment is made from rectangular panels that are crocheted as flat pieces back and forth in rows. The stitching runs parallel to body length. In other words, instead of working from the bottom up, you will be working from side to side.
• One panel is made for the back, and two panels are made for the front. The panels are then seamed together at the shoulders and on the sides. Yarn is joined to the armholes and the sleeves are crocheted in the round.
• Beginning CH stitches do not count as a stitch.
• Anytime a CH is worked into, I worked into the back bump. This gets tricky at times, but yields a better look.
• Size changes are in parentheses XS (S, M, L, XL, XXL) respectively.
