This cardigan is worked flat from the top
down. First, the Upper Back is knit down
to the armhole. Then, stitches are picked
up from the shoulders of the Back, and
the Upper Fronts are worked down to the
armhole. Fronts and Back are then joined,
and the remainder of the body is knit
downward in one piece. Stitches are
picked up around the armholes and
Sleeves are worked downward in the
round.
Depending on the positioning of the yarn,
there are instances when the charts have
two consecutive WS rows or two
consecutive RS rows. If the row number is
at the right-hand side of the chart, it is a
RS row and you read the chart from right
to left. If the row number is at the
left-hand side of the chart, it is a WS row
and you read the chart from left to right.
When instructed to increase every x
number of rows, this may not always
occur on a RS row. In these instances,
work the increase row on the next
available RS row.
Weaving in and knitting in ends as you go,
or using a Russian join, is recommended
to reduce finishing time later.
