Cloud is a fun all over cabled sweater / jacket. The elbow length sleeves are perfect for the warmer seasons where you want some warmth. The cable gives a sweeping effect and creates a gentle ruffle along the bound off edges.

Knit from the top down, you can easily try it on as you go to make sure you have the perfect fit. The sleeves are cast on and then the stitches are saved on scrap yarn in order to pick up again and continue to the elbow.
Since the cardigan is top down knit there are only the under arms to sew up.
