Construction

The Gunta Shirt is knitted from the bottom up, and the front, back, and sleeves are each knitted back and forth separately. The design features a classic set-in cap sleeve and a polo collar with a buttonhole placket. Italian cast-on and bind-off are used.
Be aware that several things are happening simultaneously in the pattern.
Since this design has many ends to weave in, it can be advantageous to weave in ends along the way, one pattern piece at a time.
