I-cord edge with buttonholes:

This technique creates a neat, rounded I-cord edging along the cardigan front, while at the same time working buttonholes directly into the edge. The result is a clean and elastic finish that frames the garment nicely and makes the buttonholes both functional and discreet.

Written step by step description:
You start with having picked up stitches along your edge
First, mark on the cardigan’s right side, for example with stitch markers, where your buttonholes should be.
Join yarn.
Using knitted cast-on, cast on 5 sts for the I-cord edge.
Knit 4 sts, knit 2 sts together through the back loop. Slip the 5 sts back to the other needle.
Continue this technique until you reach a marker for a buttonhole.
Buttonhole consisting of two rows:
Knit 2 sts, knit 2 sts together, make 1 yarn over, knit 2 sts together through the back loop. Slip the 5 sts back to the other needle, including the yarn over as if it were a stitch.
Knit 3 sts, knit the yarn over together with the thread running across the back of the work, knit 2 sts together through the back loop.
Continue this technique across the row, making buttonholes at your marked positions.

This technique is used in our KAN YOU VEST knitting patterns e.g. Hoodie Cardi and Cutie Cardigan.
