The sweater is worked from the top down. First the rib neck edge is worked in double length, so it can be folded double at the end, then the circular yoke is worked. Then the stitches are divided for sleeves and body and each part is finished separately. The sleeve cuffs can either be work on double-pointed needles or on the circular needle using the Magic Loop technique.
