Ed. note: Yarnspirations shows crochet hook in supplies list, but this is a knit pattern.

From the pattern:

Back is knit first from the lower edge up. Each front is then picked up and knit downward from the shoulder to the lower edge.

Because the front is knit on the bias, the front is knit until it is the same length as the back, not according to a specific number of stitches.

Construction schematics are provided.
