The Mae Cardigan has a classic appearance with an unusual construction. The front and back pieces of this sweater are knit from the bottom up, but the sleeves and yoke are worked as one piece and seamed in the center back with the Kitchener stitch. A simple striped pattern in seed stitch adds subtle details to the cuffs and border.
