Glenevin
Glenevin is worked from the bottom up. The split hem is worked in two pieces back and forth and then joined to work in the round. The Body is worked in one piece in the round to the underarms. The Front and Back Yokes are worked separately. After the shoulders are seamed, Sleeve sts are picked up and the cap is shaped with short rows, then joined to work in the round from the top down. You may work the stitch patterns from text or charts.
