- It's crocheted from top to bottom. You will start working around the neck 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.
- If you prefer a longer sweater, simply add additional rounds right after Round 2 in the body section. Ensure you have extra yarn on hand to accommodate the added length.
- To achieve a longer sleeve, consider adding additional rounds right after completing Round 14/16/18. Remember to have sufficient yarn available for the extended length.
- When you are making increases from round 2 to 20 (22, 24) you work the 1st dc of the increase of the previous round, then you work a V stitch in the ch 1 sp and then you skip the 2nd dc of the increase of the previous round and work in the next dc.
