Construction
Coffee Date is a drop shoulder sweater worked from the top down. The back of the sweater is cast on at the shoul- ders. Left and right front shoulders are picked up from the cast on edge and worked flat with shaping for the neck- line. Sweater front and back are worked flat to the sleeve depth and then the body is joined to work in the round. Sleeves are picked up and knit straight downward. Two neckband variations, folded or flat, are provided; both are worked in 1x1 rib. The body hem, flat neckband, and sleeve cuffs are finished with 1x1 rib and a tubular bind off.
