The lower body is picked up from the center body and worked down to the hem, with optional placement of waste yarn for pocket openings.
    • The sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked circularly to the cuff, with short-row shaping to shape the cap. Stitches for the collar and front bands are picked up and worked flat on a circular needle, with short-row shaping to shape the collar.
    • The optional pockets are knit separately circularly, then joined to the fronts using Kitchener Stitch.
