TWIST is knitted seamlessly and top-down in a structured pattern that looks like a small cable. You begin at the top of the back, where the shoulders are shaped using short rows. Then continue until the armhole is finished. From the shoulders of the back, stitches are picked up for the 2 front pieces. Join the back and front pieces under the armhole and knit to the desired length, interrupted only by pockets. Pick up stitches in armhole, and knit the sleeves top-down to desired length.
