Crooked Cardi is a top-down, flat-knit cardigan with a modern twist. The back is worked first, then stitches are picked up for the front pieces. The right front is shaped at the neckline, while the left stays straight for a side split. After joining and knitting the body, sleeves are picked up and knit in the round. Garter edges add a clean finish throughout. The cardigan opens on the left side, with a continuous button band that wraps around the neck and ends on the right front.
