Knitting pattern for a classic cardigan with a cable pattern all over body and sleeves and a deep V-neck in sizes XS | S | M (L | XL | 2XL).

Structure:
The cardigan is worked top down with raglan increases and additional increases to shape the V-neck. The body is worked back and forth in rows, the sleeves are worked in rounds. The cable pattern is all over body and sleeves as well as the raglan lines. The button band in 1x1 ribbed pattern is worked directly when shaping the yoke and working the body of the sweater. Body and sleeves are both finished with a hem/cuff in 1x1 ribbed pattern to match the ribbed button band.
The fit of the cardigan is quite lose and oversized, which is emphasized by the slightly cropped length of the cardigan. The modern fit of the cardigan creates a great contrast to the more classic design elements, e. g. the cable pattern all over body and sleeves and the V neck shape.
