The first sweater I ever made was for my high school boyfriend. It was also worked side-to-side like this lovely End to End Pullover by Purl Soho. The reverse seaming is the only detail this simple, garter stitch style needs. My first project did not turn out so well; I recall that one sleeve was sitting higher than the other for whatever reason. Chalk it up to  inexperience, but now this style is on my quick and easy list of knitting projects.
