Quibble is a comfortable, yet stylish top that is knit from the crown of the hood to the hem in one piece. The hood stitches are cast on using Judy’s magic cast on method and is shaped using increases down to the neckline. The pocket ribbing and side seam cable pattern help to make the body knit interesting and give this top a subtle flair. This pattern also includes instructions for a hoodless version of Quibble. Quibble is also available in women’s sizes.
