This highly professional looking cardigan is knit from the top down in one piece.
No seaming is necessary. Only the buttons and optional pockets need to be sewn on.
Starting at the shoulders and upper back to under arms. Body is joined under arms and worked down in one piece. A slight waist shaping will guarantee best fitting. Stitches from armholes are picked up and – using a special, and very easy technique – the sleeves are knit top down to the cuffs.
Double seams finish all edges, giving a neat and elegant look.
