Sunday Cardigan Junior - Paper

Sunday Cardigan Junior is knitted top down. The yoke is knitted back and forth in rib with increases, and the button bands/front bands are knitted at the same time. The body and sleeves are knitted in stocking stitch, and both are finished with a rib edge. The buttonholes are made at the end (i.e. not knitted in between) by sewing around the edge of the buttonhole with a buttonhole stitch.
