Procedure
The cardigan is knitted back and forth, from the top down. Cast on using a temporary crocheted cast on. First knit back and forth while increasing at the raglan and at the beginning and end of every right side row, to form the neckline. Cast on for the front piece edges and continue with increases at the raglan, divide the work and work sleeves and body separately. Finally knit a lovely finish at the neckline.
