The sweater is worked very plain seamlessly from top down. It starts with increases for the circular yoke along 12 markers. When yoke increases are done, the sleeves are divided from the body without underarm cast on stitches to keep the shape.
You can decide for stockinette or reverse stockinette right at the end, before picking up the collar stitches.
