Notes
This sweater is worked in the round from the top down. Short rows are worked across the back for slight shaping. The yoke increases are created through the use of the Dip Stitch motif, included is a helpful video tutorial for how to knit the Dip Stitch.
This stitch is really quite easy once you get the hang of it, but I suggest you practice it on your swatch a few times before diving right in to make sure your tension is not too tight or too loose!
After the yoke the sleeve stitches are placed on waste yarn or spare needles to be picked up and worked in the round.
