This cardigan is knit flat from the bottom up. You will begin with the pockets so that they can be used as your gauge swatch (directions on pg. 5)! The sleeves are knit in the round from the bottom up and joined to be worked together with the body for the yoke. The sweater is finished off with an applied, double-knit button band for a polished finish!
