I decided that what I needed to do in order to conquer the clover pattern was to do a practice swatch thingie. So I cast on as if for the cardigan again with some junk yarn I have hanging around. That actually was a huge help. I figured out the pattern, and then practiced my increases until I felt like I knew what was going on. It has worked out pretty well, so far!
Because of the way the pattern is written, it took me a while to figure out if I was supposed to repeat the row of knitting only in between the rows with the YO’s that create the holes. The answer is YES, but I’m a dufus and had to read the section on the clover pattern a few times before I realized that.
FULL STEAM AHEAD!
I am now nearly done with the back piece, and I’m hoping to cast on for the front pannels soonish. Pictures to come!
