Construction Notes: Worked in the round from the bottom up; the sleeves are worked separately and joined at armhole level, then the yoke is worked in the round to the neck. The yoke is set off by a band of bobble-embellished colorwork, which is given in chart form only. The slit neck opening is accented with button and loop closures. The ¾ length sleeves are slightly gathered at the cuff.
