The Neilo cardigan is knitted seamlessly top-down starting at the neckline. The cable pattern is easy to memorize and the raglan increases over the cable pattern are charted. The sleeves and body are separated at the underarm and knitted separately. Lastly, the neckband is picked up from the body and knitted in the round.
