ENGLISH

This sweater is knit from the top and down in the round. The neck opening is shaped with short rows, and the armholes are shaped with raglan construction. Once the armholes have been shaped, stitches are removed and set aside for the sleeves to be knit later. The body is then completed in stocking stitch with a ribbed edge. The sleeves are then knit in the round and finished with a ribbed edge.
