About the pattern....
Beautiful, unique cables for an updated classic! Pullover is worked in pieces and seamed. A garter slip stitch edging makes seaming a breeze. I still consider this pattern an advanced design because you’ll need to shape the neck and shoulders in pattern, which can be challenging for a beginner or first time sweater maker.
