I’ve been intrigued lately with sweaters that are knit side to side. I didn’t want just any simple side to side knit though. I wanted something unusual, something with flare. That’s where the holey cable design comes in. The holey cables also have the added bonus of showing off your arm tattoos while the lovely chunky wool keeps you warm.

I know all patterns say to read ALL directions before starting. But with this one it’s really important that you do that. I’m really good at rebelling against directions and telling people to do the same, but this one is one I wouldn’t say that about. You’ll be happy you read them all.
