A relaxed V-neck sweater with striped shoulder panels and long sleeves. The shoulder panels are worked first. Stitches for the back and fronts are picked up from the panels and worked back and forth according to the instructions. The rest of the body and sleeves are worked in the round and the V-neck is finished off with a ribbing.
