The Twist is a cabled pullover for adults that’s knitted top down. At the underarms stitches are placed on holders for the sleeves, then the body is continued in one piece.

The sleeves are then worked top down too and are seamless. There are short rows which raise the back of the neck for a better fit.

The Twist has a decorative yoke of ever increasing cables making it an interesting knit. There’s the option of doing a slightly shaped version with a waist, or straight down. Choose longer sleeve / body length as need be.

Note: the cable instructions are written only.
