The Tipoplo pullover is knitted seamlessly from the top down. It is started at the neckband and then the top of the pullover is shaped with raglan increases. The sweater has a beautiful cable pattern on the front, and even though the cables are very simple, the chunky yarn makes them look impressive. The cable pattern has a 6-row repeat and it is suitable for advanced beginners. After finishing the raglan, the sleeves and the body are knitted separately in the round.
