This is a very simple design great for first time sweater knitters. It is knit in the round, starting at the collar, then you divide off some stitches on waste yarn which will be used later for the sleeves. You will knit the rest of the body in one piece. Then you take those stitches on waste yarn, transfer them back to the needle, pick up a few addition stitches and knit the sleeves. Since it is a short sleeve sweater, the sleeves knit up quite quickly. Nice baggy fit, nothing too clingy, perfect when you want just a bit of warmth!
