Notes: Odonata is knit bottom up in separate pieces for the front, back and sleeves. The body is a rectangle and shaped at the shoulder with short rows for a dropped shoulder fit, before joining them with a 3-needle cast off. The sleeves and body are seamed together at the end and stitches picked up around the neckline to finish.
