Notes
This cardigan is worked flat from the bottom up. The fronts and back split at the armholes and are worked separately. The back is bound off after the armhole while the fronts are continued. The ends of the fronts are then either grafted or seamed together with a three needle bind off and seamed to the back, leaving openings for the arms. Sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked down in the round.
