The body is knitted from the bottom up in a nice pattern. 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 in stockinette st and knit together with the torso with raglan decreases on the yoke. You pick up stitches for the leg edges that are knitted at the end. Italian cast on and cast off is used so that it does not tighten and to give a nice result.
