Cast on with italian cast on, and then continued with 4 rows of k1, p1 as per pattern for all hems.

Picked up 110 sts along the entire neckline - I find it odd that the pattern does not indicate how many sts to pick up. That would have been a nice guideline.

I’m not crazy about knitting five pieces separately and sewing them together for a tiny little newborns baby cardigan What a hassle, ugh! Why would you ever knit in pieces for a such a small cardigan??? I think this is way too much work. I will modify the patterns to knit them in one piece/in the round next time I knit from this designer, it’s simply not worth the hassle - although the finished piece is lovely!
