Front and back are then divided at the underarm and steek stitches are cast on to work the remainder of the upper body in the round. Additional steeks are added for front neck. After the shoulders have been joined stitches are then picked up around the armhole and short rows are worked to shape the sleeve cap. There is a choice of straight or balloon sleeves, as well as crew or turtleneck finishing.
