Notes

The cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top-down, starting with the top of the back. Short rows are used to shape the shoulders, then the back is worked straight down to the underarm. Stitches are picked up at the shoulders to work each of the front sides separately down to the underarm. The back is joined with both fronts and the body of the cardigan is worked flat in one piece to the hem. Sleeve stitches are picked up around each armhole and worked in the round down to the cuffs. Double-knit button band with buttonholes is worked on last.
