Needles: US 8 [5 mm] straight or circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge A 24" circular needle in main needle size, for neckline Notions: Stitch markers stitch holder darning needle cable needle (optional) smooth yarn for seaming Gauge: 17 Sts and 24 Rows = 4" in St St, blocked 1 cable panel (54 sts) in full = 8½" wide Notes: Constructed in pieces from the bottom up with set-in sleeves for stability - definitely an important thing with worn-open cardigans of this style! WATERshed’s lightness and body contribute to an incredibly wearable finished product, and I highly recommend it for this sweater. Vertical darts are used front and back for waist shaping, which makes for both a better fit and easier seaming. The neckline is picked up and worked after seaming. The Left and Right cable charts are 20-row repeats while the Center cable chart is a 24-row repeat. Ensure pattern is kept correct throughout the back. The fronts feature Neck and Armhole Shaping at the same time. Read the sections throughout to understand shaping before beginning. Show more
