The Book Club pullover has a relaxed and slightly boxy fit. It is knitted seamlessly top down with a diamond cable pattern that is a lot easier than it first appears and is suitable for knitters who are just learning to knit cables.

The pullover is started at the back neck and then increased to the full width of the back. After that stitches are picked up along the sloped shoulders for the fronts. The front and back are joined at the underarm and the body is then knitted in the round. The sleeves and the neckband stitches are then picked up from the body and worked in the round. The beautiful cable pattern is worked on the front and the back as well as on the sleeves.

The length of the body and sleeves are easily modified to suit your own body measurements. I recommend trying the pullover on every now and then while working on it to make sure you get the perfect length for your style.
