PATTERN | MILANO SWEATER

You begin the Milano sweater by working a garter stitch stripe across the upper back. Starting from this colored stripe, the back is then continued with short-row shaping worked in Color A. Then the two front sections are worked one at a time, incorporating short-row shaping. Additional stitches are picked up from the edges of the colored stripe, and all the stitches are then placed on one needle. As you work in rows, you also shape the neck opening. You cast on new stitches for the center of the neck opening and join the sections to work in the round. From this point on, you work increases for the sleeves, followed by increases in the sleeves and torso. Once all the increases are worked, the sleeves are separated from the body. The torso and sleeves are then worked separately, adding a stripe sequence and the ribbing. The collar is added at the very end.
