Construction Information from Ravelry:
This sweater is worked in one piece from the top down with a circular yoke construction. Short rows are used to raise the back neck.

The neckline, hem and cuffs are worked in 1x1 rib. Body and sleeve lengths may be adjusted (note that adjustments in length will affect total yardage required of MC).
