✨ What makes it work

• Made in sections. Bottom ribbing and body panel first, then the first front panel worked right onto it.
• Simple assembly. Make the back and second front panel, then seam the shoulders.
• Sleeves worked on. Top down with gradual decreases, right onto the cardigan.
• Polished edge. Front edge ribbing finishes it off.
• You’re not on your own. Video tutorial and written pattern included.
