This beautiful pullover is a very satisfying knit. It’s worked from the top down, in the round, so there’s no seaming. The front and back are the same, with waist and hip shaping for a better fit. The sleeves are picked up and worked down from the armhole to a 3/4 length; if you’d like a longer sleeve, just work an even number of additional decrease rounds and change to ribbing when the sleeve is about an inch from your desired length. The cable and lace pattern is interesting and engaging, and is presented in both written and charted versions.
