The Wrap Cardi is a simple cardigan worked top-down. The back piece is shaped first using German short rows, then each shoulder is worked separately before joining the back and fronts to knit the body flat. The cardigan has seamless sleeves knitted directly onto the armhole. Finally, a long tie strap is knit using the double knitting technique and attached to the cardigan to form a neat edge along the front and neckline. The entire cardigan is worked with two strands held together (1 strand of each yarn quality).
