Making Tracks Sweater
“Inspired by the wonderful and varied lines left by tyre tracks in forests, fields and on beaches, ‘Making Tracks’ is a cabled sweater with saddle shoulder sleeves and a round neck,” explains Kath Andrews. “Worked in pieces from the bottom up, the structure of this garment creates a very wearable sweater. The cables have a regularity that should help those newer to cable knitting, and there is plenty to entertain the more experienced knitter.”
