Confident beginner. The sweater is knitted top down in the round, techniques required are: knitting in the round, folded hem, basic knitwise increases, casting on with the back loop.

The sweater is knitted top down in the round with increases spaced out along the yoke, the sleeves are then separated while the body is knit in the round. Sleeve stitches are then picked up and the sleeves knitted in the round. Length of the body and sleeve can easily be modified.
