Sugar
Sugar is knit seamlessly from the bottom up. The shoulders are united by a
three-needle-bind-off. The stitches for the sleeves are picked up along the
armhole. The sugar dot pattern is knit one color at a time. It is a simple stitch
repeat that is logical and easy to memorize. The effect is a fascinating
structure that is such fun to knit.
