Pattern Planchette

Planchette cardigan is worked top down, in one piece, without seaming, and starting at the middle of back neckline.
Wide bands of stockinette and reverse stockinette are alternated all along this garment, and raglan lines are worked using slipped stitches. These lines are continued along body sides after sleeves separation. Short sleeves feature an I-cord border.
