Designer Notes:

  1. Sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up, to the sleeves, then the front and back are worked flat separately. The body of the sweater is worked in Stockinette Stitch, aside from the bird chart.
  2. Chart is given to reflect the RS of the knitting. When the sweater is worked back and forth for sleeves, the chart will need to be interpreted when working the WS.
