The Novice Cardigan Mini – Chunky Edition is worked from the top down. This means that you begin by working the ribbed neck edge, then you work the yoke, then the body and finally the sleeves. The cardigan is worked in stockinette stitch, while the edges are worked in rib. The Novice Cardigan Mini – Chunky Edition has a round yoke, which is shaped by working 4 sets of increases evenly distributed along the yoke.
