NOTES
This sweater is knitted in the round from top to bottom. You start with a provisional cast on at the neck, short rows shape the depth of the neckline. Then, you increase to form the yoke and work the lace pattern. Immediately after the lace, another series of short rows are added to give more height to the back. Then, after, the yoke continues with Raglan increasing.
Finally, you put sleeves on a stitch holder to complete the rest of the body. At the bottom of the sweater, you work some short rows to give more length to the back. After finishing the body, you work sleeves and remove the provisional cast-on to achieve the neckline.
