Notes

Interesting pattern. No schematic, so you have to trust the pattern.

Elaborate charts, but they are blurry when you expand the size.

I alternated the mohair to prevent pooling.

Modifications:

  • I skipped the first cable crossing at the underarm, to make it easier to pick-up stitches for the sleeves. Though, the way the sleeve pick ups are designed it would have been better to keep it. As the cable continues from body to sleeve in a stunning way…that I have now ruined (slightly) by thinking too much (also slightly lol).
  • The sleeve cuffs were too wide for me, so I added a few decreases on the first round of the ribbing and used a 4mm needle instead of 4.5mm.
