Twisted stitch cables that embellish front and back of Aviara pullover make this basic garment a thing to remember. Completely modern in shape, this drop-shoulder pullover is an eye-catching addition to any wardrobe. Pullover is worked in the round from the bottom up to armholes, then front and back are worked separately and shoulders are joined using 3-needle BO. Stitches for 3/4 sleeves are picked up around the armholes and sleeves are worked in round from top down
