The body of this cozy cardi is knit from the lower edge to the armholes in one piece, then divided to work the back and fronts separately. The shoulders are joined with a three needle bind off. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armholes, caps are shaped with short rows then the sleeves are worked down to the cuff, making it easy to try on and adjust the length to your individual arms!
It's simple and mostly seamless. The only seaming necessary is to set the pocket linings into place.
