Separating Sleeves from Body: Top Down Seamless Sweater Knitting + Cable Cast-On
If you’ve never knit a top down seamless sweater, I have the perfect video tutorial for you today! This one works step by step through the process of separation and also includes a tutorial within for the Cable Cast-On. You can view all my tutorials here. In this tutorial, the sweater featured is constructed with seamless set-in sleeves. However, the process of separating sleeves by placing stitches on hold, casting on stitches at the underarm, & joining the front & back is pretty much the same no matter what construction style you are working. You can use this video for raglan & yoked sweaters as well, as long as they are worked from the top down!
