Product Details

I just couldn't decide which neck to use for this cozy cabled pullover ... so I made a pattern with options for four! Besides a cowl neck (photo #4) there's a T-neck (#6) that can be worn rumpled or folded, and there's also a tidy Y-neck (#5), and a wide crew (not pictured).

The sweater fits loose in the body, slender in the sleeves, and has a split high-low hemline.

Sweater shown is size 47 worn with 11" ease on dress form.

Skills needed: Cables, reading charts, short rows(here’s a link to my popular wrapless short row method: http://www.sundayknits.com/techniques/shortrows.html)

Pattern includes: Written instructions, charts (cable and lace patterns are in charted format only (symbols are color coded), schematic, glossary.

Construction notes: Sweater is knit flat from the bottom up with seams. Raglan shaping is worked with cable decreases and is shaped differently for the sleeves than for the sweater body for a lovely fit in all sizes. Instructions are for working pieces flat, but the sweater could alternatively be worked seamlessly in the round (after the split hem), eliminating selvedge stitches and working sleeve and body raglan shaping simultaneously.
