PATTERN NOTES  
Sakura is a raglan worked seamlessly from the bottom up, beginning with the skirt and decreasing at the bodice. Sleeve stitches are cast-on at the underarm. Simple stockinette stitch creates a gently rolled edge along the sleeves and neckline.  

You may wish to place stitch markers between pattern repeats during the Skirt section to help keep track of repeats.
