This is a vintage pattern, so it’s smaller in size ranges than today’s patterns.

Gauge in chart pat: 19 sts/23 rows using size 9 needles.

Oversized (for 1961) summer sweater featuring a modified boatneck, hems at neck and edges, 3/4 sleeves, and a cable and bobble pattern that starts at the high bust/underarm and continues to hem. Plain yoke and sleeves. Another design feature is a tassel attached to each side seam at hem.
