NOTES
Cardi is worked in 5 pieces: Back, 2 Fronts, and 2 Sleeves.
Each piece is worked from the lower edge upwards, beginning with a lower ribbed band. Main part of
each piece is worked in Cable/Slip st pattern.
For those who prefer a visual, we’ve included a chart for the Cable/Slip st pattern.
With yarn in front (wyif) refers to the side of the work facing you as you work the row; with yarn in back
(wyib) refers to the side of the work that is away from you as you work the row. To move yarn from front
to back or back to front, bring yarn between needles. Take care not to wrap yarn over a needle, this
could create an additional st.
A circular needle is used to accommodate sts. Work back and forth on circular needle as if working with
straight needles.
When you see ‘as established’ in the instructions, this means to continue in the current pattern st, lining
up sts as in previous rows.
When you see work ‘even’ in the instructions, this means to continue on in the pattern st you have
established without changing the st count by increasing, decreasing, or binding off.
