A cardigan featuring cable edging that continues through the collar

This raglan sweater is worked flat with the three listed yarns held together and from the bottom up, beginning with the body first. When you get to the sleeve separation point, you work the provisional cast on to create the sleeve sts and hold them on scrap yarn for later. Then, you work the yoke decreases until you reach the neck. The collar is worked by continuing the cable edging from the body of the sweater and turning your work back and forth to join the collar to the neckline using decreases. You end by working each sleeve individually. 

This pattern uses cabling, the kitchener stitch, and the provisional cast on method. This pattern also includes optional instructions for adding a zipper.
