Description:
The piece begins by working the back on circular needles, back and forth until reaching the underarm. The work then moves on to the front. The body of the garment is worked in the round down to the lower i-cord edge. Stitches are then picked up around the armholes to work the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline to create the i-cord neck edging. For each technique or critical step, a video tutorial will guide you through the process, making the construction easier to follow and understand. US terms are used.
