Fabia Sweater and Tunic is worked top down with a eyelet and cable pattern down the middle of the front and back while the sleeves and the sides of the front and back are worked in moss st. The work is worked back and forth at first to create and opening across the right shoulder, but then the work is joined and worked in the round until it is divided at the end of the body to create a slit in each side. The sleeves are worked at first in moss st and finished with a wide rib. The sweater/tunic is worked in one piece and only requires very little finishing.
