The top is worked bottom-up with raglan decreases. The two parts of the little skirt are worked separately and then worked on to one needle before decreases for the body. The body and sleeves are worked separately. The parts are then placed on a circular needle and then worked together with raglan decreases. At first the yoke is worked in the round and then back and forth to create an opening in the back (explained in detail in the instructions).
