Discover the art of knitting with our stunning cardigan pattern! This beautiful cardigan features both sleeves and the body, which are expertly worked separately from the bottom up to the underarm. Once they reach the underarm, they are seamlessly joined to create the yoke, which is designed with elegant raglan lines. The yoke showcases strategically placed decreases that taper gracefully from the underarm to the neck, ensuring a flattering fit for every shape.

The finishing touches include stitches picked up for the collar and button bands, while an underarm stitch join is completed using a three-needle bind-off, providing a polished look and durability to your handmade cardigan.

**Gauge:** The 10-st Front Cable Panel measures approximately 3 1/4” / 8.5 cm wide using larger needles, while the 22-st Back Cable Panel measures about 7” / 18 cm wide with the same larger needles. For Stockinette stitch, the gauge is 11 stitches and 17 rows = 4” / 10 cm, also using larger needles. To save time and ensure accurate sizing, it is essential to check your gauge before starting your project for best results.

Perfect for both beginners and seasoned knitters, it's a fantastic addition to your collection of knitting patterns!
