Top Down Sweater Knitting

One of the benefits of knitting a sweater from the top down is being able to try it on before I’m even halfway through! I’ve just divided the top into body and sleeves.











It looks like a bolero here. But my plan is to continue knitting the body of the sweater down past my hips, more or less where the shirt ends, then go back and complete the sleeves. (My daughter commented that she would do the sleeves first, then knit the body until she ran out of yarn.) 

I’d probably do that if I feared not having enough yarn, but I think I’ll have more than enough.
