PATTERN INFORMATION

The cardigan is knitted top down, starting with the back yoke which is worked back and forth. After that stitches are picked up across the shoulders to form the front panels while shaping the neckline, then the rest of the body is worked back and forth till it is finished. Stitches for sleeves are then picked up and worked in the round. Lastly stitches are picked up for the double knitted button band.
