This design is knitted top-down seamlessly in stockinette stitch, holding 3 strands of yarn together.

The sweater is knitted partially flat and partially in the round. You will begin by knitting the back until the underarms. Then, separately knit each shoulder at the front, shaping the v-neckline at the same time. The front and the back will then be joined together and the rest of the body will be knitted. Next, you will pick up stitches along the armholes for working the set-in sleeves using the short rows. The neckband is knitted from picked-up stitches along the front and back of the sweater.
