METHOD

The top is worked from the top down starting from the back neck and then the upper back is worked flat until the underarms. You pick up stitches from the shoulder straps to work the upper front until the underarms. Finally, the pieces are joined on the same circular needle and the body is worked in the round until the hem. The neckline and armholes are finished with ribbed edges.
