Feeling nostalgic for red sock monkeys? We’ve turned the color theme into an adult pullover and added some cable details for a more grown-up look. The body works up quickly on size 10 needles with 2 strands held together. The lower body, cabled sleeves and neckline are worked single stranded on smaller needles and feature the traditional red stripe. Sleeve cap extensions create saddle shoulders.

Body gauge: 15 sts to 4 in. on larger needles
