“This cozy wrap cardigan is worked with no shaping, being merely the combination of five rectangles. The finished garment can be worn two ways: as a drop shoulder cardigan with a stole-like collar, or flip it upside down for a short bolero with a dramatic shawl collar. The design is intended to give the wearer several different styling options – I hope you enjoy it.”− Michiyo

CONSTRUCTION
Each Front is worked with patterned cables. The Fronts are joined together in the center back, using a Joinery Bind Off. Stitches are then picked up along the center of the joined front panels and worked downwards for the Back. Next, stitches are picked up in the corners of the join between the Front and Back pieces and the Sleeves are worked downwards. Finally, the Side and Sleeve seams are sewn.
