CONSTRUCTION
This cardigan is knitted from the bottom up. First, the body is worked to the armholes, then the fronts and back are worked separately. The back is knitted with German Short Rows to create a shoulder drop. The shoulders are joined with a 3-Needle Bind-Off. The sleeves are worked top down in the round and feature a 1 x 1 ribbing and an Italian Bind-Off. Button bands are worked in neat double knitting, picking up stitches along the fronts and neck. Lastly, duplicate stitches are worked in two colours to give the garment a final touch.
