CONSTRUCTION NOTES
You will begin the Pizzelle Cardigan with the bottom ribbing at the full width of the entire body. You will work the body of the sweater along the finished ribbing. After the bottom section of the body is complete you will separate the sleeves by creating a back panel and two front panels, leaving openings for the sleeves. Next you will seam the shoulders and add the sleeves in the round to the sleeve openings. Next you will add the hood and then seam the hood closed. Lastly you will add the final edging. To complete the hood you will make a length of icord for the hood pulls and seam hood edging to create a channel for the icord.
