The Zip Me Jacket is worked top-down, allowing for easy customization of body and sleeve lengths to suit your body. The cardigan is worked in the round and using steeking afterwards.

Begin by knitting the back piece, then pick up stitches for each shoulder. The shoulders are worked individually with increases to shape the neckline. Next, knit the shoulders and front piece. The body is then knitted in the round. The sleeves and ribbed collar at the neckline are knit from the picked-up stitches.
