From Interweave Knits:



Even experienced knitters enjoy quick, easy projects that result in comfy everyday knitwear.  Amy King adds flair to this straightforward zip-front cardigan by working dropped stitches at equal intervals across the bell sleeves and fold-over collar.  The front edge is trimmed with I-cord and fastens with a zipper.  Says Amy, "There’s something so enjoyable about dropping stitches on purpose."
