Pattern Information: Suncatcher is knitted flat from the bottom up in 2 pieces, with sleeves knit in the round after seaming. Short rows end at the shoulder bone and shape the drop shoulder into standing off the arm slightly, for a better range of movement.
Note: cotton yarn can stretch vertically from the weight of the garment. To simulate this stretching during blocking for accuracy, hang the swatch with something lightweight attached to the swatch, such as clothespins.
