  CONSTRUCTION

  • Sleeves are worked circularly from cuff to underarm. After binding off the underarm stitches, the cap is worked flat.
  • Cardigan body is worked in one piece for the ribbed hem. Upon completion of the hem, stitches for the front button bands are put on a holder to be worked later. The remaining cabled section of the body is worked in one piece to the underarm.
  • After underarm stitches are bound off for the body, both fronts and back are worked separately to the shoulders. V-neck shaping is worked on each front.
  • Upon completion of the body, you will return to your held front band stitches and work them separately. Front bands are worked at a firmer gauge than the cabled portion of fabric (using smaller needles). When bands reach the base of the front neck shaping, you will begin working shaping for the shawl collar.
  • The shawl collar is shaped with short rows, seamed together at the back neck with a Joinery Bind Off. The edge of the collar is then sewn to the back neck edge of garment.
  • The front bands and shawl collar are worked with a 4-stitch selvedge that lays flat; this selvedge is a combination of a 2-stitch I-cord and 2 stitches of 1x1 rib. Instructions for working this selvedge are written into the pattern.
