Vatulele
Vatulele cardigan features the simplest garment construction: it is worked in one piece from the bottom up to the armholes (which means you can easily adjust its length by working fewer or more rows), then the fronts and back are worked separately until they are finally joined together as-you-go in the last row at the shoulders (no sewing required).
The ribbed collar around the fronts and neckline begin by working a row of stitches along the row ends and continues in turned rows until it is as wide as desired.
