Description from knitty.com:
This cabled sweater-coat with shawl collar was inspired by a sweater worn by the character
Josephine(played by Marion Cotillard) in the movie “Big Fish”.
The chunky, cashmere-blend yarn is super soft and warm, giving it a touch of luxe. It is the perfect sweater for curling up on the sofa with a book (or your knitting) and also works as a jacket for tromping through the leaves on those crisp, dry, fall days.
