The back and front are worked in rows until the armhole shaping is completed, the shoulders are shaped with short rows. The pieces are then joined and the body is worked in the round. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up around the armholes and worked in the round with 3x3 ribbing and a panel of the main pattern. In the end, stitches are picked up for the neckline and the ribbing is worked in the round.
