Seed stitch and symmetrical cables grace this slightly cropped, boxy pullover. Worked from the top-down beginning with a provisional cast on of the back and sleeve stitches. Front stitches are picked up from the provisional cast on and a few short rows are worked to shape the shoulders. Once the underarm is reached the front and back stitches are joined to work in the round. Completely seamless with minimal finishing, this cute pullover will jump from needles to body in very short order. Instructions for the stitch patterns are provided in both written and chart format.
