The sweater is knitted from the top down in Duo. The pattern also includes instructions for the Matthew Sweater in Double Sunday.
First, cast on for the back piece, where the right and left shoulders are shaped separately with double-pointed needles, and knit down to the underarms. Next, cast on along the shoulders on the left and right sides of the front piece. The shoulders are shaped with double-pointed needles, and stitches are cast on towards the neck before each front piece is knitted to completion separately. The front and back pieces are knitted together, and knit back and forth until the front piece is long enough for the zipper, before knitting in the round to full length. Stitches are cast on around each armhole to knit the sleeves. The neckline is finally knitted in ribbing back and forth. Double-pointed needles are knitted into the left and right sides of the neckline so that it is higher at the front than at the back. It is folded down towards the wrong side, and knit back and forth with decreases over the front edge to follow the deeper neckline. Stitches are cast on along the sides of the front pieces where the zipper is to be attached. The zipper is sewn on at the end.
