VANLIFE is a comfortable sweater, knitted seamlessly, top-down. You start knitting the yoke for the back then fronts are picked on the bottom from shoulders and formed with shorts rows. Then, the body (back and front) is first worked back and forth then in round. The buttons bands are picked up. The sleeves are picked up and worked in the round. It is also possible to knit short sleeves and Vanlife will then become a tank top!
