Description


The front, back, and sleeves of this semi-fitted pullover are knit sideways in reverse stockinette stitch, casting on at the left edge and casting off at the right. Horizontal stockinette cables travel asymmetrically across the hips and waist, adding definition and short rows are used for bust shaping.

To top it off, an optional Gardenia corsage can be pinned on the shoulder for dressy occasions, left off entirely, or borrowed by another sweater.

Details


The pattern includes charts for the cables executed around the waist, as well as schematics with the finished measurements.
