This is a reinterpretation of a sweater I made for a friend of mine in college during the 80’s. The original had a cable down the center and cabled turn-back cuffs. This version also has a cable down the center, but the cuffs, although cabled, don’t turn back. The yarn is a wonderful cabling yarn that is a delight to knit with.
