Construction
Construction
Clearly is knit in the round from the bottom up, then the lower body and sleeves are worked separately and joined for the raglan yoke. The stitches for the optional hood are picked up around the neck and worked with German Short Rows (as is the optional bust shaping). The trim is then worked around the hood and neck edge and finished with a sewn tubular bind off.
