Twins Cables Sweater
Twins Cables Sweater is a chunky sweater with a central cable on the front. You can choose from two beautiful cables or knit two sweaters with different cables using this pattern.
This sweater is designed with mockneck, cropped or regular length options and oversized body fit for comfortable wear. Sweater is worked pretty fast using chunky yarn and large needles.
It’s perfect for any special occasion during cold days or just for everyday wear over your favorite dresses or with jeans.
Sweater is worked top down seamlessly in the round with raglan increases on the yoke. Once the yoke is ready, sleeves stitches are placed on hold and the body continues to work in the round to the hem. Sleeves stitches are worked in the round after the body is ready. Both sleeves and body are finished with delicate ribbing. The length of the body and sleeves can easily be adjusted to desired length.
You can choose one of two cables for the front- cable #1 (as for green sweater) or cable #2 (as for pink sweater). Both cables charts and written instructions are provided in the pattern.
