Instructions Overview
Body
- Back and Front: Both sections begin with ribbed edges and continue in a rib pattern for the main body. Armholes are shaped by casting off and decreasing stitches, while shoulder shaping is achieved with gradual cast-offs.
Sleeves
- Cuff: Ribbed cuffs start with a narrow edge, and the sleeves are worked in rib pattern with gradual increases for shaping.
- Top Shaping: Sleeve caps are formed with cast-offs and decreases, ensuring a smooth fit when sewn to the body.
Stitch Patterns
- Rib Pattern: Alternating 4-knit, 2-purl ribbing creates a stretchy, fitted texture.
Finishing
- Seams: Join shoulders and sew in sleeves using mattress stitch.
- Neckband: Pick up stitches along the neckline and work in rib for 4 cm, then cast off loosely.
- Blocking: Lightly block to finished measurements for a polished appearance.
