The Front and Back are worked separately from the provisional cast-on to the armhole, using short rows to shape the shoulders. Then the Front and Back are joined and worked in the round to the hem. Sleeve stitches are picked up from the armhole opening and worked in the round, from the shoulder down. The pockets are worked separately and sewn in place.
