Hand Knitting Patterns
This stitch pattern is a slight variation on one I found in one of my stitch books. I love the way the purl ridges intersect with the cables and ribs without interrupting their flow. The ridges are used again in the collar and button bands to pull all the elements together. The collar frames the deep v-neck beautifully. The pattern offers a choice of a cropped (as shown) or standard length. This cardigan is worked in one piece from the bottom to the armholes, then the fronts and back are worked separately to the shoulders. The sleeves are worked flat from the bottom up, then sewn in. The collar is worked separately, then sewn to the neck edge.
The cable pattern is presented in both written and charted formats.
