FINISHED MEASUREMENTS

This sweater is knitted from the top down, in the round, and seamlessly. We begin by knitting the collar and the yoke with raglan increases. The sleeve stitches are left on hold in the armholes while you work the body in the round. At the end, we pick up the sleeve stitches and knit in the round down to the cuff.
