Watch a video about how this sweater is made.

Knit seamlessly from the top down, this top has V-lace panels worked on the front and the back and k1, p1 ribbing worked at each edge. The neckband is knit first, then the back and front are divided and worked separately to the underarm with short-rows used to shape the neck. They are rejoined at the underarm for the body and worked down to the hem in the round.
