This sweater is knitted from the bottom up.
You start by working the body in the round. When you reach the armholes, you bind off stitches at each side and then work the front and back separately, back and forth on the needle. Once both pieces are finished, the shoulders are sewn together, and stitches are picked up for the neckline.
The sleeves are knitted separately and then sewn on.

I live in Norway and know yarn availability varies between countries.
Please use a similar yarn that gives the same gauge.
Always knit a swatch before you start to ensure the correct size.
