The Borgan Cardigan is worked back and forth in stocking
stitch from the bottom up. The hems are ribbed, and as a
fine detail, part of the rib is extended as a stripe on each
sleeve and on each side of the cardigan. Body and sleeves are worked separately and joined at the yoke, which is shaped by raglan decreases. Finally, stitches are picked up for the front bands.
