Basic Braid Cable Sweater
This is my first attempt at a pattern, so please be gentle! This sweater is designed to be an easy first cable sweater, as it is knit seamless from the top down with a small cable repeated throughout. It is comfortable with an identical front and back to hopefully make for a fun unisex pattern.
Sizing: Please note that these are the finished bust garment measurements, so choose a size based on actual bust size plus desired ease. For women, 0” to -1” of ease looks best, while men look best with 1-2” of positive ease.
X-Small: 31”
Small: 33”

Materials:
Yarn: Worsted weight Acrylic yarn. I used Earthtones by Nicole, but any worsted weight acrylic should work nicely. Really any worsted weight yarn that makes the gauge would work. 1,000-1,800 yards depending on size.
Gauge: 18sts and 22 rounds/4” stockinette stich using larger needles
Needles: Us#6 and US8 both 32” circulars and DPNs, or any size that achieves gauge
Notions: Stich markers, darning needle, and waste yarn
