Pattern Info:

It’s knit flat from the bottom in one piece, then separated at underarms, and the ribbed buttonband is worked as part of the sweater body. Sleeves are worked separately and are set in.

Lovely cable decreases shape the sleeve caps and couture-shaped shoulders. Subtle shaping whittles the back waist a bit. And while the length shown is cropped, the sweater couild be made any length desired.

Slip-stitch crochet forms the after-thought buttonholes and stabilizes the front edge. Neckline band is attached I-cord.

Yarn: Any Sunday Knits sport weight yarn: 5 (6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9) skeins. Shown in Eden apricot.
