I have been wanting to try a saddle shoulder design with a cable worked in the saddle that would continue down the sleeve. I snagged some Handmaiden Ottawa at TNNA and thought it would be the perfect choice for this design. I love the little specks of color that give it a tweedy look. This sweater starts in pieces and parts but once they are joined it is pretty straight forward. The cabled panel adds some natural shaping: therefore no body shaping after the armholes was necessary. The length of both sleeve and body are easily adjusted. I love this sweater, it is so easy to wear! It works works with jeans or dressed up with a pencil skirt. I wear mine all the time!
