NOTES
This cardigan is knit seamlessly from the top down. It begins at center back neck with a provisional cast on, from which the collar is worked in either direction, then stitches for the yoke are picked up along the long edge of the collar. The shoulders are shaped using the contiguous method and set-in sleeves are knit simultaneously with the upper body. At the underarm, body and sleeves are divided and worked separately to the lower edge. Yoke and sleeves are worked in Color Band A yarns; the lower body transitions to Color Bands B and C.
