The New York Liberty Jersey is worked from the top down with a v-neck. The jersey is worked using a mix of mesh and stockinette stitch, intarsia colorwork, duplicate stitch, and hand embroidery. To help distinguish areas for colorwork and increases, 6 different color markers will be used. First, the back is worked, then the front shoulders and front body, a rib side panel is picked up and knit from the front body, and finally the sides are seamed. The Jersey has slanting shoulders to create a nice fit and are shaped using short rows. Rib neckline armholes, and side panels are worked as 3 color stripes. All edges are finished with an Italian bind-off to create a smooth finish.
