The not-quite-shawl collar is double-thick with an inner facing (worked all-in-one piece with the rest of the sweater) that creates a finish that’s both clean and cozy. Optional button or clasp closures may be added, with invisible buttonholes concealed on the inside of the cardigan facing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorked completely seamlessly from the top down, choose from different length options for both body and sleeves to get a custom proportion that’s just right for you.

Stitches are cast on for first half of collar extension, which is shaped with short rows, then worked flat to half of target length and placed on hold. Stitches for second half of collar extension are picked up from cast on edge of first half, then worked as for first half. Stitches are picked up across side edge of collar extension and yoke is worked flat to the underarm. Upon completion of raglan yoke, Body and Sleeves are divided and worked separately. Sleeve stitches are placed on hold and the body is worked flat to chosen length (semi-cropped\/classic\/tall). Sleeves are then worked circularly to the cuff, with mirrored decorative shaping. The collar facing is tacked down using a lighter weight yarn or embroidery thread. If concealed buttonhole closures have been worked, buttons are sewn on to finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinished Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes: 1 (2, 3, 4) (5, 6, 7) (8, 9, 10, 11)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e39½ (43, 47, 49¾) (53¾, 57¾, 61¾) (66¼, 69¾, 74¼, 78¼)“ [100.5 (109, 119.5, 126.5) (136.5, 146.5, 157) (168.5, 177, 188.5, 199) cm] finished circumference at chest, with front bands overlapping\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee Full Schematic for more sizing information\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSample 1 is size 3, Semi-Cropped Version with Classic Sleeves in Shelter color Snowbound.
