From the description: Share your quiet time with a sweater that’s comfortable to wear and easy to stitch. All of the garment pieces are worked in a three-stitch cable on a background of single crochet stitches. It will only take working a handful of rows to familiarize yourself with the stitch pattern, making this an ideal project to work on whenever you have a free moment. The body is cropped at the high hip. The sleeve has a shaped cap that’s set in to the armhole. The high neckband is a stand-up collar that’s worked in the same stitch pattern as the body.
