NOTES:
*I crochet loosely, if you are a tight crocheter I suggest going up a hook size or 2. Just
make sure to check gauge 1st.
*This pullover is worked in 1 piece, from the bottom up. You start with making 2 panels
& then you connect them to build the body, working your way up to the shoulders.
Then you sc, sl st, or sew up the panels together to create the shoulders & arm holes.
You then crochet directly around the arm holes to create the sleeves.
*Beginning Ch 1 DOES NOT count as 1st stitch.
* Anything in between ( ) means that the entire sequence is worked in the same space
* Anything in between * * means you repeat that specific sequence until specified.
* If the number is before a stitch that means that is how many stitches you make in 1
space.
Example: 2sc – 2 sc in the same st
