Construction:
The KDBY Scotty Sweater is a raglan sweater, knitted in the round from the top down. After the yoke, stitches are placed on hold for the sleeves and the body is finished in the round. Finally, the sleeves are knitted onto the sweater.
As the neckline is large enough, I have not increased the back by short rows so that the pattern can also be knitted by less experienced knitters.
