This cardigan is worked from the top down with raglan shoulder shaping. The wide front bands and collar are picked up and knit along the cardigan opening using a reversible slip stitch cable pattern. The decorative slip stitch cables travel over the surface of the garter stitch background on the back, sleeves and front collar. You can have lots of fun with the colour options for this pattern!
