This cute Hoodie is worked in the round to underarms, using a lovely textured rib stitch which allows plenty of “give” in the fabric, and as rib is used all the way through there is no welt at the waist or wrists.

A neat cable is worked up both sides to the underarm to give a little interest and some stability where they would often be seams.

The sleeves are added and the entire garment then worked in the round to the neck.
The hood is worked separately and then grafted into place, this ensures that the hood is not floppy and sits well, apart from a few sts underneath each sleeve, this is the only seam in the entire garment.
