ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Beach Glass Sweater combines a center front cable panel with a stockinette stitch body. The sweater is a simple top-down seamless raglan with positive ease and subtle shaping for a relaxed fit. Named Beach Glass Sweater because the cables evoke the bubbling so common to antique teal beach glass. Turquoise, aqua and teal are some of the most rare and appealing of all sea glass colors. Most aqua sea glass is over 100 years old. Written in 8 sizes. Cables charted and written.
