Luna Sweater is a classic sweater with cute and feminine details. The sweater is worked from the top down using the contiguous method, where you start by making increases for the shoulder, then for the sleeve and finally for the armhole. The neckband is knitted from picked up stitches along the neckline and the sleeves are made with decreases and increases around the ribbing.
