The Warm Vanilla Sugar Sweater is a DK weight top down drop shoulder sweater featuring 3x3 rib and right leaning cables. The back yoke is first knit flat down to the armholes. Stitches for the front yoke shoulders are picked up and worked flat, increasing stitches for the neckline. Once the neckline is complete, the front shoulders are joined and the front yoke is knitted flat in one piece down to the bottom of the armhole. The front and back yokes are then joined and the body is knit down to your desired length in the round. Stitches are then picked up for the 3x3 rib collar along the neckline. Lastly, stitches are picked up along each armhole opening, and the sleeves are knitted down in the round in 3x3 rib.
