CONSTRUCTION: Worked from the bottom up and finished with adjustable shoulder ties—making the armhole and neck depths customizable. Front and back ribbing are cast on separately and worked flat before joining in the round and working up to the armholes. Garment is then split for fronts and back, with all trim worked at the same time—no picking up edgings later!
