Romilia Sweater is worked bottom up. At first the sweater is knit in the round until it is divided in two, and then the front and back are worked separately back and forth to create the armholes. when the front and back have been finished sts are picked up for the sleeves, which are then worked in the round top down. At the end sts are picked up for the neck edge on both the front and back. The shoulder are not seemed but instead closed with buttons. Romilia Sweater can be knit with a heart eyelet pattern or a leaf eyelet pattern on the front and back while the sides and sleeves are worked in a simple textural pattern.
