PATTERN NOTES
This pullover is worked from the bottom up in pieces. The color pattern on front and back can be worked in intarsia, or a combination of intarsia and fair isle.
When doing armhole or neck shaping in the color pattern, you may need to adjust where increases/decreases are made if there are not enough stitches at the edges to work corresponding decreases/increases.
When doing shaping in the Twisted Honeycomb pattern, maintain stitches in pattern as much as possible.
