This versatile V-neck cardigan has edgings and button bands worked in a contrasting color, while the main fabric is knitted in subtle stripes. The neat pockets are worked using the ‘afterthought’ method. The body fronts and back are cast on together and knitted back-and-forth, then divided at the armholes. The sleeves are knitted in the round and then sleeve caps are worked flat. Shoulders are joined using a three-needle bind-off.
