NOTES
The cardigan is worked from the bottom up in 3 pieces. The sleeves and body are joined at the yoke, then worked as a single piece. The folded collar is worked from live stitches, then bound off by sewing to the inside. Button and buttonhole bands are created while working the cardigan
Optional: for tighter button bands, use Needle B dpns: work across the band with Needle B dpns, change to Needle A for body, then across the last band with Needle B dpns. Maintain tension between needle changes. Swatch for tension difference. If using this method, count the needle change as markers 1 and 10 for the yoke.
