Inspired by the colors of Northern California and Bavaria, the delightfully soft Palmer Cardigan is a stunning work of stranded knitting. This sweater begins with the collar at the back neck, then stitches are picked up along the collar and cast on for the shoulders, and the piece is worked seamlessly from the top down. Short-rows are used to shape the shoulders and lower edge.
