This cardigan is worked flat with set-in sleeves and waist shaping. The collar is attached by picking up sts. If you choose to use a closure method, the closure used is a single large hook and eye positioned at the beginning of neck shaping on the inside of the garment although no closure or other closure methods of your choosing may be used.
Yarn suggestions: Yarns that would work best for this sweater are cashmere, wool, or alpaca that is blended with silk or bamboo. Using yarns without a stabilizing yarn blended in, such as silk or bamboo, will skew your gauge as the garment gets longer.
