Construction Overview: This sweater is knit in one piece. Start in the round for a couple rows at the neck, cast off stitches at the shoulders for the straps, knit the upper front & back separately down to the underarm, re-join them and knit the body. The cables that edge the upper front and back continue uninterrupted down the side under your arm. There is subtle shaping in the body that helps define the empire waist and flares out for the hips.
