Wade’s Lake is a sport weight pullover embellished with copious amounts of cables. The body is worked in the round from the bottom up, then split and worked back and forth up to the top of the dropped shoulders. The sleeves are worked in the round from the cuff up and then seamed onto the body, or alternately skip the sleeves altogether and work it as a vest instead.
