This sweater is a Chunky Soft Sweater, covered in cables knitted from bottom up, while holding two yarns together throughout the whole sweater. The sweater has a bust circumference that will give you a 10 cm positive ease and has 4 panels that will be sewn together with the blanket stitch. The sleeves are nice and long and the cuff can be turned up if desired. To finish the sweater you will pick up stitches at the neck line to knit the collar. Each pattern size has its customized pattern parts (on graph paper) to fit its front, back and sleeve panels.
