Lenchen is worked seamlessly from top down. It starts with a provisional cast on for the shawl collar from which you pick up stitches for the neckline shaping. Shoulders are shaped by using the contiguous method. When shoulder shaping is done, increases for sleeves and front shaping will be worked. After sleeve dividing it is just going on straight until until pockets are worked.
