The body is knitted from the bottom up in a pattern that consists of stockinette stitch and twisted stitches to the right and left. To make the leg openings, knit the front and back pieces back and forth separately before putting them together and knitting the torso around. Knit the sleeves separately and knit together with the rest for raglan decreases on the yoke. Stitches for leg edges are picked up and knitted at the end. Italian cast on and cast off is used so that it does not tighten, in addition it gives a nice result.
