Dress up or down in a classic V-neck pullover distinguished by lush textures. Designed to fit with several inches of ease, Spinnaker layers comfortably over work wear or casual tees. Forking cables embedded in a field of cluster stitches on reverse stockinette keep the knitting engaging, but the motifs are easy to read and memorize. Though the body is worked straight to the armholes, the cables create flattering lines and give the suggestion of waist shaping. The wide neckline is shaped with full-fashioned double decreases that integrate with the cluster stitch pattern to beautifully frame the collarbones and face.

CONSTRUCTION
The pieces are worked flat and sewn together. The neck edging is an applied I-cord, worked from held stitches at the center front neck.
