Anker's Sweater - My Size from PetiteKnit is knitted top-down. The yoke is divided into rib sections with round increases, followed by traditional raglan increases when the stocking stitch section begins. The sleeves are knitted at the end using double-pointed needles or circular needles with the Magic Loop technique. Once completed, there is no need for any finishing touches aside from weaving in the ends.
