Pattern Notes
Starting at the hem with a rib, this basket weave and cable sweater features a classic set-in sleeve construction. The Front, Back and Sleeves are knitted separately – making this a really portable project – before being seamed together. Full photo and video tutorials are included to walk you through the finishing process for this sweater. The neckband stitches are then picked up and a simple garter stitch band is knitted on.

Errata
In section 6 of the pattern, it should say:
You now need to work straight until the Front is 18 (18, 18, 20, 20, 22, 22, 24, 24, 26) rows shorter than the Back, to the point where your back neck and shoulder shaping started.
