This sweater done seamlessly starting from the top working down continuously with the sleeves. It based on on Barbara Walker’s top down method with one difference - the whole body is knitted from a single ball of yarn without breaking it. You do not have to worry about hiding the ends and cutting your precious yarn for shoulders, front and back. Then the sleeves are worked from top down at the point of separating them from the body. The pattern instructions include pictured tutorial described each step of this seamless method in the details.
