Breezy Nights is worked from the bottom up and knit back and forward. It starts at the hem with the lace design worked in fingering weight yarn. The body is then worked in lace weight yarn. The front and back are separated at the armholes and worked separately. The shoulders are joined and stitches are then picked up for the sleeves. The sleeves caps are created using short rows and the sleeves are then knit in the round. The cuffs are knit separately then joined to the bottom of the sleeves.
