Cradle Cardigan KAL, part 4

In the final installment of the Cradle Cardigan knit-a-long, we'll pick up and knit the neckband.  All yarn ends will be woven in.  Finally, we'll wet block our little sweater.  For more information on weaving in ends, check out this excellent tutorial from knitty.

Be sure to post your final cardigan pictures to Ravelry so we can all see!  Next week I'll have some modeled shots of Mabel in her new cardigan, along with a little surprise...
