notes
Sweaters are knit from the top down. After you complete the neckline, choose either raglan or circular yoke. Within the circular yoke, you can choose to knit it one color, or add a colorwork pattern on rounds 7-12. Then, choose either a plain or colorwork body.

8 Colorwork charts are included in the pattern.

If your colorwork knits up tight, you can go up a needle size for those rounds.
