Aria Cardigan – Crochet Tutorial | Part 1: Neckline & Short Rows Welcome to Part 1 of the Aria Cardigan crochet video tutorial. In this first part, we focus on creating the anatomical neckline, shaped with short rows that blend seamlessly into the cable stitch pattern. The Aria Cardigan is worked top-down with a round yoke construction, and special attention is given to the neckline to ensure a comfortable, well-balanced fit that sits naturally on the shoulders. This foundation sets the structure for the rest of the cardigan and is essential for achieving a clean and refined finish. ✨ In this video, you will learn: How the anatomical neckline is shaped using short rows How to integrate short rows smoothly into the cable stitch pattern How to prepare the yoke for the following construction stages ▶️ Next videos in the series: Part 2: Yoke, splitting row & body Part 3: Sleeves, button band & final touches You can find the full materials list, gauge, yarn requirements, and measurements in the playlist description.
