Construction
The sweater is knitted on circular needles, from bottom up until the armhole. Here you can either continue on circular needles and then cut open for the armhole and neckline, or continue back and forth in pattern knitting. It requires some skill to make knitting on circular needles and knitting back and forth look the same, and you need to control your "dominance."

The sleeves are knitted from the inside out.
