FROM TOP TO DOWN
Here you start with the neck, knit raglan and divide the work into sleeves and body when the raglan is finished. Then you knit the body first, then the sleeves.
In this pattern, it might be a good idea to knit the sleeves before the body, so that you get the sleeves dark enough if you use leftover yarn.
For both, different types of kidsilk are mixed, with the darkest colors coming first.
PS! The pink version here has slightly longer sleeves.
