Workflow
Top is knit from top down. First, you’ll cast on sts and work the back shaping the armholes. The work is then put on hold, and each shoulder is worked separately while shaping the V-neck and armholes. The two shoulder sections are then joined with the back and knit flat until desired length is reached. Ribbing is worked at the end to finish the top.
