Intermediate / Zipper neckline is created first. Then the sweater is worked top down. Stitches are picked up for the sleeves, which are knitted from the shoulders down. Sleeve cuffs are worked first and seamlessly attached to the sleeves. We have instructional videos for techniques used in the pattern and yarn kit - Zipper Teddy on Strikkehjelpen.
