PATTERN NOTES
This sweater is worked from the top down with circular yoke and raglan shaping. A small section of wrap and turn short rows are worked at the back of the neck, at the bottom just before the hem to help with fit. When working the yoke, change to longer circular needle if necessary. Baby sizes have a button tab at back neck and will require a button.
