The body of this cardigan is knit flat in multiple pieces: two front panels and one back panel, all knitted bottom up. Panels are seamed at sides and shoulders. Stitches for sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked in the round to the cuff. Left and right front bands are knitted by picking up stitches off of left and right panels. Right front band has button holes. Neckband is knit by picking up stitches around neckline. Pockets are knitted by picking up stitches above the rib and then seaming to the front
panels along the sides.
