Knit from the top down in Aran weight yarn, this cozy, saddle shoulder sweater begins with a seed stitch cable at the edge of the neckline. The pattern grows in complexity as mock cables are added along the arms, while a single mock cable along the back adds an additional accent. Easily adjust the length of the straight sleeves. Waist shaping instructions included. Relaxed yet stylish, you can wear this sweater out to a football game or dinner with your besties.
