A very pretty design with aran style cabled panels set against a background of reverse stocking stitch. The sleeves and sides of the main part are worked in rice stitch. The leaf motifs are worked separately and arranged each side of the larger cables. However you can stitch them where you wish, or leave them off the sweater altogether, as this is a lovely aran sweater without them too. Worked bottom up and with full written instructions.
