About Cape Cardigan:
The Cape Cardigan is a combination of a cardigan and a cape, and is perfect to wear on its own or layered over a long-sleeved top or shirt. It can also be worn as an outer layer over knitted sweaters.

First, the base of the cardigan is knitted top-down with increases to form the yoke. Then you pick up stitches from the neck and knit the cape.
The work is finished by knitting the buttonband and the neck.
