You begin by casting on stitches for the neckline, then place stitch markers to divide the work before continuing with increases for the sleeves, front, and back. The work is then divided into three parts, and the sleeves and body are finished separately, each ending with an i-cord edge. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline, which is also finished with an i-cord edge. The blue sweater (size m) in the photos is knitted in Drops Air (01+16). The green one (size m) is knitted in Sandnes Kos (1012+9052). The dark grey one (size m) is knitted in Drops Air (06) — it is knitted shorter than the pattern specifies and without i-cord edges.
