A pullover worked in a single color from the bottom up in the round and nearly seamlessly. The only sewing is limited to finishing: (Sew underarm seams. Fold neck double and sew on WS). The body is worked in stockinette. The circular yoke is worked in a cable pattern framing the face and decreases are blended into this design element. The cable pattern is charted.

The sweater is designed in bulky yarn for sizes 2-4 years; 6 years; 8-10 years; 12-14 years. It was originally designed as a girl’s sweater, but it looks as though it would be quite suitable for a boy, choosing yarn in a masculine color.
