Notes
Good Silence 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 yoke is finished a few more short rows are worked to raise the back of the neck.
