This pullover is worked from top to bottom in two pieces. First, make the double ribbed collar, seam it and continue on with the body of the sweater. You will work three rounds of puff stitches, which can be in your main color or in a contrasting color. The rest of the pullover is worked in half double crochet, increasing until you reach the armhole depth. Once you split for the armholes, continue working in continuous rounds until you reach the length you want. Do not fasten off, but continue to the bottom ribbing.

For the sleeves, you will pick up the yarn in the underarm and work hdc in continuous rounds until you reach the desired length. You can add two rows of the contrast yarn at the end of each sleeve if desired. If you prefer a looser fit in the sleeves, simply add an increase in the underarm every other round until you reach the desired width. I highly recommend trying on your garment as you go. For instance, try it on after you finish the cowl, after you split for the sleeves, and as you work the body, so you can get a feel for the fit and make adjustments as needed.
