The fit is cropped and a bit boxy, perfect for over skirts and dresses. Audrey Cardigan has a raglan construction and is worked back and forth from the top down. You start with the I-cord ties and neckband, work the yoke back and forth down to the underarms where sleeve stitches are placed on hold to be worked after the body has been completed. Sleeves are worked in the round and finished with an I-cord edge.
