Hand-in-Hand Cable Sweaters: Woman's Cardigan
Pattern Description from Interweave Knits, Summer 2007: “Kathy Zimmerman combined nine classic cable patterns in her knitted vest and cardigan. The wide center panel on the V-neck vest is flanked by a zigzag pattern and smaller cables. The cardigan uses the same zigzag and smaller cables at the edges but a different cable along the center-fronts. Kathy is owner of Kathy’s Kreations in Ligonier, Pennsylvania.”
