Notes
This v-neck cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down. Firstly, back shoulders are cast on separately and short rows are worked to shape shoulders. At the same time, increases are made to shape the back neck. Shoulders are then joined together and back is worked to underarms. Fronts are picked up from back shoulders and neckline is shaped. The front and back are then joined and worked flat in one piece. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armholes and knitted from the top down in the round. Sleeve instructions are written to use DPNs, however an alternate method of working small circumferences can be used, such as Magic-Loop, or a short circular needle for the larger sizes. Button bands are picked up around the front of the cardigan and worked back and forth in rows.
