The sweater is worked from the bottom up in the round. The front and back pieces are separated and worked flat. The shoulders are seamed using the 3-needle bind off method, and stitches are picked up for the neckband. Lastly, stitches are picked up around the armholes and the sleeves are worked from the top down in the round.
