It is really much ado about nothing ! The sweater is worked in rows seamlessly from top down. Neckband and front bands are worked in k1,p1 ribbing. Neck shaping will be done with short rows, using the german short rows method. For the shoulders, increases will be made in every row along one seam stitch (contiguous method by Susie Myers). Sleeve increases will be done in every second row. Pocket backs are worked together with the fronts on separate needles. For a soft A-shape slanted increases will be done at the same time as the pockets are made.
