Andrea was designed to complete any outfit with a touch of polish with its geometrical texture and easy-to-wear open styling. The cardigan begins with the pocket liners which double beautifully as your swatch! The body of the cardigan is then knit from the hem up to the underarms, where it is split into front and back and then finished at the shoulders with a 3-Needle Bind-Off. Sleeve stitches are picked up from the arm openings and knit down to the cuffs.
