Sauvabelin Sweater
This design was one of the 11 modern, minimalist patterns featured in the publication WOODS: Making Stories.
Cables, cables, cables - cables and raglan, is there a better combination? We don’t think so! Sauvabelin’s top down construction makes it easy to customise the length and the beautiful cable pattern ensures that you want to knit just one more row… and then one more… Lana Rara’s yarn from rare Swiss sheep breeds is the perfect match to bring out both the best in yarn and sweater. In case you’re between sizes, we suggest you go up a size.

ERRATA
p. 120 of WOODS / p. 4 of individual pattern PDF: The stitch counts for size 2 are incorrect. The correct stitch counts are:
Repeat last 2 rounds until you have – (80, 90, 108, 118, 130) sts each for front and back and - (42, 50, 64, 74, 82) sts for each sleeve. Note that these st counts do not include the “k1, p1, k1” raglan sts between the markers.
