PATTERN NOTES
This Tunic is worked in pieces and seamed.

This piece may look like it has raglan shaping, but it actually has set-in sleeves. After Armhole shaping is complete, Slanted Stitch Detail chart begins, giving the illusion of raglan lines. As the stitches from the sides begin to consume the Horseshoe Cables, maintain stitches in pattern as much as possible.

Stitch patterns are both written and charted.
