Lion Brand Construction Notes:

Pullover is worked in 3 steps.

  1. Yoke is knit lengthwise, then seamed at center back.

  2. Stitches are picked up along one long edge of Yoke for Front, Back, and Sleeves, and worked downwards from Yoke to lower edge.

  3. Stitches are picked up along opposite long edge of Yoke and worked upwards for garter yoke.
