Working the Front Opening and Collar Edges
- After the single crochet edge around the cardigan opening, chain 3 and work double crochets for the next row.
- Continue working rows until you reach four total.

Finishing the Arms and Sleeves
- Work around each arm opening using single crochets, followed by fpdc and bpdc ribbing rows.
- Continue until the sleeve edges are finished.
Finalizing
