Notes
This pullover is worked from the top down as follows: The back is cast on, shaped with short rows and worked down through the armholes. Then the front shoulders are picked up from the back and worked separately until neck shaping is complete. The fronts are then joined and worked through the armholes. Front and back are then joined and worked in the round. The asymmetrical hem is shaped with short rows. Sleeves are picked up, shaped with short rows and worked in the round. Finally, the collar is picked up and worked.
