PATTERN NOTES
The body of this cardigan is knit flat in one piece from the bottom up. The fronts and back are separated at the underarms and worked separately, then the shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind-off. The sleeves are knit flat, separately, and sewn to the body using mattress stitch, or your preferred method for joining seams. Finally, the patch pockets are knit flat, separately, and attached to the left and right front.
The Cable pattern is both written and charted, however, the Sleeves are in chart form only. You may utilize the Cable pattern as outlined in the Stitch Guide as a reference for the Sleeve Charts.
In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise.
