CONSTRUCTION NOTES
The cardigan is designed to be knitted back-and-forth, each piece individually.
However, it is possible to knit the carding on circular needles. All stitches must then be cast on initially, side seams must be marked at both side, and on front must be marked. 3 extra sts must be added for steeking front and armhole.
RECOMMENDED NEEDLES
2.5 and 3 mm, spare needle for shoulders. Optional: 2.5 and 3 mm circular needles (for working in the round and cutting open). Optional: Short 2.5 and 3 mm circular needles for sleeves.
