More information about the project can be found below.
The cardigan is knit seamlessly, using two strands of yarn held together, from top to bottom, using a stockinette stitch. First, stitches are cast on for one shoulder, then the other. Both shoulders are formed using German Short Rows. After joining the shoulders, the back piece is knitted. Stitches for the front pieces are picked up along the shoulder line. Once the desired length is reached, the front and back pieces are joined under the armholes and knitted further together, while simultaneously increasing to shape the neckline. A pleat is made around the neckline using the Double Knitting method. Next, the bottom pleat is knitted, which begins and ends with a tie belt. Finally, the sleeves are knitted.
