Enjoy knitting Aran-inspired lace cables with a lightweight wool-mohair blend yarn in the Caramel Apple Pullover. The color pops of the nepps in the yarn give the fabric a traditional tweedy quality. This sweater, delicate and snug, is knitted from the bottom up in pieces and then seamed before stitches are picked up for the neckband.

NOTES

  • This pullover is worked back and forth in separate pieces and seamed.
  • A circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of stitches.
  • While shaping neck and shoulders, omit the extra increases on Rows 3 and 11 and decreases on Rows 7 and 15 from the Center Cable chart to avoid problems with stitch counts while shaping. Work the affected stitches as they appear.
