The left front shoulder is then knitted with incorporated neck increases and the same repeated for the right, these are then both joined together by casting on front neck sts. Once the required measurements are reached, the front and back body panels are joined together in the round. The rest of the body is continued in the Moss and Trellis Stitch pattern with a panelling of Stocking Stitch near the hem which features split hem details. The sleeves are picked up and knitted in the round and follow the Moss Stitch pattern. The ribbed neckline is picked up last and folded over to achieve a doubled trim.
