Super Cropped Sweater in Big Cotton

This sweater is knit in two separate pieces: the back panel and front panel. Each panel is worked flat from
the bottom up in rib and seed stitch. The front panel additionally splits into the front left and front right,
with stitches cast off in the middle for the neckline. After both panels are knit, they are seamed together at
the shoulders. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up from the edges of both body panels and worked in the
round. Each sleeve is worked in seed stitch; the cuffs are worked in rib. The sides are seamed.
