This cable knit sweater is a great way to try working with cables, without having a full size sweater to work on. Done on size 7 needles, it’s easy to see what is happening with the pattern, and great for a beginning knitter to try.
This cardigan knits up in worsted weight yarn and finishes with 6 buttons. Front and back are knitted as one piece, and only need shoulder seams sewn. Sleeves are knit flat,set in, knitted separately, and have underarm seams.

Sweater will fit American Girl, Madame Alexander, Fibercraft dolls, Springfield, Lizzi,and others of a simiilar size and build.

This only takes one skein of the specified yarn. You may use single pointed needles or a circular needle.
