notes
a. The body and sleeves of this pullover are worked flat, then seamed using mattress stitch. The raglan collar is picked up around neckline and worked in the round.
b. A 32” circ is suggested to accommodate the number of stitches in the body, but straight needles can be used for body and sleeves. 16” circ is required for working collar.
c. The back raglan armhole depth is 1” / 2.5 cm longer than the front depth for an improved fit. The top of the sleeve cap is sloped between the two different raglan lengths.
d. A garter stitch selvedge is used throughout.
e. For best results, the designer recommends using the Sloped Bind-off method for shaping the neck and tops of the sleeves.
