Apiary
An allover squishy cable pullover that’s sure to keep you warm and cozy all winter long! Take your cabling skills to the next level with this showstopper garment!
NOTES: The sweater is worked flat, in pieces, from the bottom up, starting with 2x2 ribbing, followed by two cable stitch patterns for the main fabric. The shoulders and neckline are shaped using the Sloped Bind off Method, and the sleeves are shaped using decreases. The sweater pieces are blocked flat and seamed together. To finish, the ribbed neckband is worked in the round from picked up stitches around the neckline.
