PATTERN NOTES
This sweater is knit flat in pieces and seamed. The shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind-off. Neck stitches are picked up after seaming and worked in the round.

Nordic Tapestry is a yarn featuring self-pattern print. To ensure your project looks as close to the sample as possible, when casting on for the sleeves and front, be sure to visually match the point in the color change in the yarn at which you began for each sleeve and where you broke yarn for the front. This may require you to wind off some yarn. We promise the results are worth the effort!
