Assembly

Take both front panels and space them a few inches apart.

Take one of the back panels, and line up one of its short edges with the short side of the front panel, which will be the top of the cardigan. Pin it in place.

To make the armhole, count down 15 (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23) stitches, and then pin in place. Also, count down 7-10 stitches and pin to the edge again.

Take the other short end of the back panel, line it up with the edge of the other front panel so that it goes against the bottom corner. Repeat steps 2-4 with the other back panel.

Take you yarn needle, thread it with one of the extra tails you left on for sewing, and sew the top edges together. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Sew between the two pins on the side, which will then create the armhole as well as securing the back panel to the side of the front one.

Sew the opposite edge you pinned together, and repeat steps 5-7 with the other panel.
