This dashing sweater is worked seamlessly with all-over cabling. The polo placket & collar add style and ease of fit over a child’s head. You’ll knit from the bottom up in the round, then back and forth once work for placket begins. Sleeves are also worked in the round. Instructions are both written and charted, making this a great first-cabling project no matter what your preference. Wear the sweater by itself, or as a layering piece in cooler weather. Full schematic is included to help you knit the perfect fit!
