Classical Elegance Round Yoke Cable Dress
This classic cable dress is great for both professional and evening wear. The cables add interest, and the vertical stripes create a slimming effect. I recommend at least some experience with cables before tackling this pattern.
The dress is worked from the top down in a 2-color cable pattern, in rounds, without seams. Sleeves are also worked in-the-round. I used solid color yarn as the main color (cables) and self-striping yarn as a contrast color. The yarn I used has long color changes. However, it is possible to use solid color, hand dyed or self-striping yarn with shorter color changes. Just make sure the colors contrast enough to highlight the pattern.
