From pattern description:


“Loose-fitting cardigan with set-in sleeves, subtle bell sleeve cuffs and shawl collar.”

From Vogue Knitting, Holiday 2006:


“O’Leary’s asymmetrical wrap jacket with a knit-in shawl collar is fit for a queen. Slipped stitches create a visual demarcation line between the body and the front edges. These edges, along with the collar and bell cuffs, are worked with a double strand of Classic Elite Yarns’ luscious llama-blend ‘Montera.’ The rest of the self-finishing garment calls for just a single strand.”
