This top is worked from centre to side. You can choose 2 or 3 or even more color compositions to make this pullover. The center stitches will be casted on with provisional method. Then work wavy charts from centre to left side and right side separately to make 2 mid-body pieces. After finishing desired neck width, join the front and back piece. Keep working the right and left body . After reaching desired width, sew the front and back piece together except the sleeve stitches. Then pick up sts from the hem edge and make the rib hem.
Pick up stitches from the underarm and knit in the round to make sleeves.
Pick up stitches from the neck edge and use Icord bind off.

The multi-color wavy charts are shaped by working short rows continuously.
