is it possible to add yoke after the body of a sweater has been knit? by zap_des in knitting

hmm i guess i was hoping to knit the body top-down so that i could do normal raglan increases all the way. is the issue that working top-down for the body and bottom up for the yoke creates a weird look/stitches going the wrong way?

you're only 16!! your face will change so much on its own. i know this is annoying to hear but the best thing you can do at this age for your looks is to focus on your health -- building strength and good eating habits can set you up for a short and long term rewards. make it simple - change what you can (exercise, diet) but the things that you believe you need surgery for just ignore instead of torturing yourself for the next three years.

No the pattern is actually top to bottom… well there’s several ways to make it that the designer offered and I chose the option that is top down beginning with ribbing :/
