top down. The collar (a band of garter stitch) is knit

first. Next you pick up stitches along the edge of the

collar, then place the stitches from provisional cast-on

onto the LH needle, and knit across them. You then

work the yoke with raglan increases to the underarm.

Last you knit body and sleeves to the cuffs.

collar: the collar is knit sideways.

Using larger needles, CO 10 (10, 12, 12, 14, 14, 14, 14,
