This pullover is knit seamlessly from the bottom up. The sleeves and body are knit separately to the underarms, where they are joined and worked together while shaping the armholes and sleeve caps. The tops of the sleeve caps are finished off with short-rows, then the shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind-off method.
