From the introductory material:
“This pullover and hat set combines simple eight-stitch floral Fair Isle repeats with stockinette and garter stitch. The colors are bright and bold for summer, but not too pastel for autumn. The body of the pullover is worked in the round to the armholes, the worked back and forth for the front and back bodices. The sleeves and hat are also worked back and forth on circular and/or straight needles.
“There are two ‘seam’ stitches on each side of the body that are included in the stitch counts and instructions. Rounds begin and end at the right side seam. Because my gauge tends to be tighter when I work color patterns in the round, I used one size larger needles for the patterned skirt and sleeve ruffles.” (page 62)
