Each panel is worked flat from the bottom up in rib and seed stitch. The front panel additionally splits into the front left and front right, with stitches cast off in the middle for the neckline. After both panels are knit, they are seamed together at the shoulders. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up from the edges of both body panels and worked in the round. Each sleeve is worked in seed stitch; the cuffs are worked in rib. The sides are seamed. If you would like to buy the full DIY Kit for this style, you can do so here.
