This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. The sweater features a diagonal button band that starts at the right shoulder and ends at the bottom left of the sweater. For the neckline and button band, stitches are picked up and worked in 1x1 ribbing. Sleeves are picked up along the armhole, the shoulders are shaped using short rows. The garment is finished with tubular bind-offs.
