Chevron Flight Sweater is worked from the bottom up in the round. First the body is worked straight to the underarms. Next, two sleeves are made, then knitted on to the body. Short rows are worked to start shaping the back of the yoke. Once the colorwork and yoke shaping are complete, the last few short rows are worked to raise the back of the neck.

The sample shown is a size 36 and has 4 inches of positive ease. When choosing sizes, I recommend 2-4 inches of ease.
