Construction Notes: This cardigan is worked in one piece from the bottom up. It begins with the sleeves, which are worked to the armhole and set aside. The body is worked from the lower edge to the armholes, with waist shaping and buttonholes worked as you go. The sleeves and body are joined and the yoke is worked through the collar, shaped by concentric rings of decorative decreases. |
