Beat the winter blues with a bright sweater that will help you transition to spring. No more thick, chunky layers! This drapey pullover has a wide scoop neck, cable details along the front shoulder shaping lines and deep cuffs and hem worked in half twisted rib and neatly finished with an Italian Bind-off.

CONSTRUCTION: Worked seamlessly from the top down, starting at the front yoke. Short rows are used to shape the neck and the front is worked flat to the armholes. Stitches are picked up and worked separately along each shoulder before casting on for the back neck and working down to the armholes. The body is then joined and worked in the round to the hem. Sleeves are picked up and worked in the round to the cuffs.
