PATTERN NOTES
Left of Center is knit flat in pieces and seamed. The front and back of the cardigan are knit in one piece to the armholes, then the body is divided into the left front, right front, and back, and worked separately. When decreasing or increasing in pattern, maintain pattern as established. If there are not enough stitches to work a decrease and its corresponding increase in the Creative Reliefs pattern, work these stitches in Stockinette stitch instead.

The original version of this pattern used our discontinued yarns, Little Bird and Little Bird Colors.
