Notes
Barton is worked seamlessly from the top down in an allover 1 x 1 rib pattern with Echo and Nest held together. The collar is worked first, which divides into two saddle shoulders. Stitches for the front and back are picked up along the saddles and worked separately, then joined by casting on stitches at the underarms. Body is worked in the round to the hem. Stitches are picked up around the sleeve openings and the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuffs.
