“Warm you up” is an oversized pullover with a relaxed turtleneck and hi-lo hem with side slits, and the eye-catching zigzag color-work on the body.
The body and sleeves are worked from the neck down in one piece to the underarm.
Sleeves are then set aside and the body is knitted to the hem, with color-work worked on the way.
Sleeves are worked down in the round with the cable pattern.
Stitches are picked up around the neck for the cowl, which is worked in 2×2 rib.

This pattern is written in English, and has been professionally edited and test knitted.
