NOTES
Jumper is worked top down in rows. The piece each side of the neckline is worked first and joined at base of neckline. Once seams are sewn, an edging is added and worked in turned rounds.
As there are several different stitch patterns it is difficult to give a row tension, but as a guide, the first 12 rows of the Back should measure approx 10cm. Row tension is not critical as length can be easily adjusted by working more or fewer rows
