The Halo Cardigan is worked top down in one piece without seaming.
You cast on at the neckline and then shape the shoulders with short rows and increases. The sleeve caps are knit continuously out from the shoulders with increases. Then the work is divided into body and sleeves, where the body is knit flat with buttonholes along the front edge. The sleeves are knit in the round.
