Hourglass
Pullover
Twisted rib produces sheer fabric, and a large cable makes a bold fabric. This sheer and bold combination makes this a sleek pullover. The body and sleeves are a little flared even though you knit it without any shaping because cables pull the fabric in. The flared shape adds an elegant look.
The Front and Back are worked separately from the bottom up without shaping. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up and knit out from the body.
☆ The pattern includes the following adjustments/options to make your own style:
• Choose the combination of chest size and length
