CONSTRUCTION NOTES
The pullover is worked from top to bottom. The Front begins with an open cast-on and then is worked from the shoulders to the bottom of the armhole back and forth in rows. With the “open” stitches from the cast-on, the Back is worked to the same length (21 or 23 cm) as the Front. Beneath the armholes, both pieces are joined and worked in the round to the desired length. For the Sleeves, stitches are picked up around the armhole and worked to the desired length to the cuff. Finally, either a neckband or a hood is worked.
