Worked with two strands held together. An edging is embroidered with blanket stitch all around the edge and armholes and along the pocket tops. Yardage allows for one skein used for edging.

Pocket is created by first creating an opening by chaining across some sts while the body is being worked, then working into the chain and creating a pocket lining as a finishing step. The lining is sewn on three sides to the fronts from the wrong side.
