Notes
This pullover is worked in the round from the bottom up as follows: the hems are cast on and worked flat, then joined together and the body is worked in the round until the armholes where it is split into front and back. Short rows are used to shape the shoulders which are joined with a 3 needle bind off. Sleeves are picked up from the armholes and knit down. The cowl is picked up and worked last. Please note cable pattern is charted only.
