The Deering Pullover is constructed top down, beginning with the cabled saddle shoulders. The front and back are knitted flat, with armhole shaping. The pieces are joined in the round for the body. The cable motifs begin slightly under the full bust, shaping the body inwards to the waist hem, no decreases needed. Lastly, armbands and a thick, cosy neckband are added.
