PATTERN INFORMATION
The Ottolie cardigan is knitted from the hem up. Stitches are picked up and sleeves are knitted top down. The body of the cardigan is worked back and forth in one piece to the underarms. Work is then divided into fronts and back and each part is then worked separately. Shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind off method. The sleeves are picked up and worked down in the round. Stitches are picked up around the front and neck for the button band.
