    Part 2 Body

    The body is worked back and forth, continuing from the yoke.

    Around the sleeve part of the yoke, crochet a round. Then pick up stitches for knitting. Finally, bind off.

    Note:
    1.The sleeves can be worked using the magic loop method or with double pointed needles;
    2. You can reserve three times the circumference of the sleeve opening for picking up stitches, or pick up according to your preference. The first round of the sleeve should be completed on the right side.

    Part 5 Edging and Buttons

    Work a row of slip stitches along the cast-on of the yoke as well as the side seams of the yoke and body as the edging. After completing, sew buttons on the other side that corresponds to the buttonholes.
