NOTES

• The body of this pullover is worked in the round from the lower edge to the underarm, then the upper front and back are worked separately back and forth. The sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up.

• When working the sleeve shaping, if there are not enough stitches to work a decrease and its corresponding yarnover, work these stitches in stockinette stitch instead.
