PATTERN NOTES
The sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down. Color changes are achieved by using the stranded method of knitting.

Work begins on a 16”; circular. When there are too many stitches to fit comfortably on this needle, switch to a longer circular.

The hat is knit from the bottom up.
