The top is worked on 10mm needles in moss stitch. You begin by making a front and back panel and joing them at the shoulders. Next you pick up and knit the side of both the front and back panel, join in the round then work your sleeves.

We have done this in a striped and remnants version although you could also make it in a singular colour.
