Henry Pullover
Henry is a cute, simple, oversized pullover for the boys (and tomboys) in your life. The rib pattern makes this a forgiving sweater which will last for more than a few growth spurts, and the cables give it that little bit of interest without too much fuss (we all know the older boys aren’t big on fuss) and the neck is so simple and effective you will wonder why you haven’t tried it before.
So quick to knit in heavy worsted/aran weight yarn - try the new superwash malabrigo worsted for practical luxury.
Note: when printing .pdf choose the pages you want to print e.g. the pattern instructions and the cable chart for your size - then print only these pages - saves on paper and ink!
