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 puff sleeve and a polo collar with a button placket. Italian cast-on and bind-off are used.
Note that several things happen simultaneously in the pattern.
Since this design has many ends to weave in, it may be advantageous to weave in ends along the way, one pattern section at a time.
