PATTERN NOTES This sweater is a cropped, loose-fitting, yoke-necked pullover worked from the bottom up. The body and sleeves are worked separately in the round to the base of the yoke, then joined to work the yoke. Short rows are worked at the back yoke for a more comfortable fit. The sleeves are written for double pointed needles, however an alternate method of working small circumferences can be used, such as Magic-Loop. As the yoke decreases, change to a shorter circular needle.
