Procedure:
The sweater is worked in the round from the top down, starting with a provisional, crochet cast-on to allow adjusting the size of the neck before working the neck hem.
The shoulders and back of the neck are formed with short rows to make the back of the neck higher. The yoke is worked with increases and then divided into sleeves and body, which are finished seperately.
