INTRODUCTION
This cardigan is knit flat in separate panels. Start by knitting the individual front and back panels, then join them at the shoulder with an invisible seam. Next, along the armhole edge pick up stitches for the sleeves and knit them each down to the cuff. Finally, bring it all together with a mattress seam to close each half of the cardigan.
