The Cambridge Cardigan is the quintessential collegiate cardigan. Inspired by Scottish tartans, this preppy, oversized cardigan is ready for a chilly library, reading on the quad, or for a visit to the local pub. The body of this project is worked in the round and steeked at the center and armholes.

Notes: The cardigan is worked back and forth from the bottom up through the hem, then joined and worked in the round with steeks at center front and armhole openings. The sleeves are worked in the round, with the sleeve cap worked flat.

Duplicate stitch or Crochet slip stitch:
The sample is worked with duplicate stitch on vertical lines in CC2 on the center two boxes on the back and five boxes closest to the opening on each front while the original plan was to do it all over hence the pattern text specifies all. So you knit the center stitch of the pattern repeat with the CC1 or MC (depending on the rnd) and then either use duplicate stitch or slip stitch crochet with CC2.
Tip: You might find it easier to purl the stitch instead of knit to make the duplicate stitch more even.

ERRATA: Interweave Knits only Chart: White box is knit with MC, green box is knit with CC1.
On rounds 4 and 5 knit center st with MC, then duplicate st with CC2.
