Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole and the sleeves are worked in the round as well. To ensure a good fit, short rows are worked at the top of the back piece, shoulders and sleeves. A cable and ribbing pattern are worked on the body and sleeves, and all hems are finished with twisted rib.
