The Aurelia pullover is knitted seamlessly top-down starting at the neckline. The cable pattern is easy to memorize and raglan increases over the cable pattern are charted. The sleeves and body are separated at the underarm and knitted separately. Lastly the neckband is picked up from the body and knitted in the round.

The name Aurelia comes from the Latin word aurum meaning gold or aurus meaning golden.

The cable patterns are charted only, no written charts.
