Cabled Tunic
This versatile tunic follows classic top-down construction--beginning at the neck, the yoke is worked downward to the armholes, with cable patterns centered on the front and back. A small motif from the front, centered on the reverse-stockinette background of the sleeves, ties the elements together in pleasing overall balance. Waist and hip shaping worked in the reverse-stockinette sections between cables results in a slimming hourglass silhouette. For the three largest sizes, there is an option for introducing additional cable patterns to fill in what would otherwise be large expanses of reverse stockinette.
