Notes
The pattern is made for size small, but with detailed instructions on how to make smaller and larger sizes.

You will start working around the shoulders in joined rounds (it’s a raglan style sweater, one piece, no sewing), leaving the holes for the sleeves/armholes, working on the body and finishing with the sleeves.

It’s crocheted from top to bottom.

Use the yarn with the same characteristics as the yarn I used, that’s sport weight yarn.

I also recommend that you follow the gauge even though the pattern is made to follow along by adjusting it to your body measurements.

Ch 2 doesn’t count as a stitch.
