The Balloon Sweater features dramatic balloon sleeves that begin low on the shoulder and taper into close-fitting ribbed cuffs. The sweater is worked from the top down. In the first section of the yoke, shoulder increases and short rows are worked simultaneously to shape the neckline. After that, the front and back are worked separately in stockinette until you reach the armholes. Then you join the front and back and continue the body in the round.
Stitches are picked up around the armholes and the sleeves are worked downward in the round—first on circular needles, later switching to double-pointed needles or using the Magic Loop technique. There is no seaming; finishing is limited to weaving in ends.
