Construction

The sweater is worked top-down in the round. It is knitted in stockinette stitch, with a simple colorwork pattern in the yoke and a knit-purl pattern on the body and sleeves. The collar and hem at the bottom of the body are worked in a 2x2 rib pattern. The sleeves are also worked top-down in the round, so you can easily adjust them to your preferred length.
