Pattern for knitting a sweater with circular needles
The sweater is worked on the circular needle from the bottom up, to the armholes, then is worked in back and forth rows with the straight needles for the top of the back and the front. Then the m. around the armhole are picked up with the circular needle for knitting the sleeves in the round from top to bottom. The height of the sweater under the armholes and the height of the sleeves are identical for all sizes.
