Rosebuds pullover is knitted in round, bottom up and almost seamless (seamed only on shoulders). The sleeves are picked up and knitted top down in round. The neckline is picked up and knitted in round as well.
The yardage required is for longer pullover, more like a tunic. Should you decide to make it classic pullover length, the yardage will decrease.
