The Diane Cardigan is a drop shoulder cardigan worked top down. First, the back yoke is worked with short rows to make the shoulder slope. Then, each shoulder is picked up from the back piece and worked back and forth. When the front and the back yokes are done, the pieces are joined together and worked to the hem. The body is bound off with the decorative details. The sleeve stitches are picked up and worked in the round. The button bands are picked up from front and back and worked in double knit with sewn button holes. Finally, the neck band is worked in the same way as the button bands.
The Diane Cardigan requires the following techniques: knit and purl stitches, increases (M1L, M1R), decreases (k2tog, ssk), German short rows, and tubular bind off.
