Pattern notes
The body of this shrug-style cardigan is worked back and forth in one piece to the underarms, increasing stitches rapidly to form the dolman-shape of the shoulders and upper sleeves. Fronts and back are then worked separately, and the shoulders joined with a 3 needle bind-off. Sleeves are picked up from the armscyes, worked downwards in the
round, and finished off with i-cord. A collar is shaped around the neck with short rows, and short rows are also used to add length and a curved shape to the lower back and fronts. Stitches are finally picked up - and a garter-stitch edging worked - all around the front openings, finishing neatly with an i-cord bind off.
