True to its name Fluffy Cable sweater is a soft sweater in a fun cable knit pattern. Techniques used are cables and rib stitches.

It is an oversized design with positive ease. The size interval is larger than normal to allow for a unbroken pattern around the yoke. Sizes are S/M - M/L - L/XL - 2 XL. As the sizes are quite roomy be sure to double check the chest circumference in the pattern before choosing which size to knit.

The sweater is knit from bottom up in the round in one strand Drops Air, Viking Alpaca Sillk or similar blow yarn. The yoke is separated into front and back pieces under each arm. Then the front and back pieces are finished separately, knit back and forth. Stitches for sleeves are picked up around the shoulders and knit top down. Finally stitches for the neckline are picked up and knit in ribbed pattern.

You will need between 6 and 8 skeins of blow yarn to finish this project.
