CONSTRUCTION:
HEXAD is a top down, seamless pullover with raglan sleeves and a center cable and lace panel. The sleeves have lace detailing at the cuff that echoes the center front.
After casting on and working the neckline ribbing, the back neckline is raised with short rows. The body and sleeves are then increased until they are separated at underarm. The body is continued until the optional high-low hem which is created with short rows. Sleeves are worked in the round at the end.
