This sweater is worked top down. You start off working the neck band and then work some short row shaping for the neck. The body is then shaped with some saddle shoulder increases, followed by sleeve increases and raglan increases. You work some eyelets in the body through which the ribbon is threaded through. The fit is very relaxed. Just like a comfy sweatshirt.
