CONSTRUCTION:
The sweater is worked from the bottom up and features intarsia colorwork to the left and right of the placket. The fronts and back are knit in one piece and the sleeves are knit separately and then seamed in. The plackets and the neckline are knit on. All DEGEN sweaters are designed to allow for the maker to adapt for their body- so feel free to add length to the sleeve // body. The pattern lets you know where the best spots to add or remove length are.
