Ciro Sweater
Designed by Moreca knit

The Ciro Sweater is worked top-down. It begins with a provisional cast-on for the upper back yoke, which is worked flat from the bottom up with decreases to shape the shoulder slopes. Stitches are then picked up along the slopes to work the right and left shoulder separately, back and forth. The shoulder panels are joined to work the front yoke down in one piece. Once front and back are complete, stitches are cast on for the underarms, and the body is worked in the round to the hem. The hem is divided into front and back sections and finished back and forth in 1x1 ribbing to form side slits. Stitches are picked up along the armhole edge to work the sleeves in the round and a slit is created on each ribbed sleeve cuff. The neckline is finished with a folded 1x1 ribbing band.
