Generally, in knitting a sweater you will get to a point where the neck divides the sweater into a left side and a right side. When you get to that point, you will need to work with two balls of yarn, one on the right side of the neck and one on the left side of the neck. Most often, you knit across one side, cast off (or put on a holder) the neck stitches, and attach the second ball of yarn to knit across the other side.
At the same time, you may be decreasing stitches on each side of the neckline (or maybe not--read the pattern). If you follow your pattern, instruction by instruction, as you come to them, and do exactly what the instructions say (no matter how weird it sounds), you'll be successful in shaping the neckline.

Unless you let me know which pattern it is I can't help you. The link only directs me to a pattern selection. You can always look up the abbreviations on google or watch you tube tutorials on it.
