Invermay is a long-sleeved pullover with stripes caused by the colour changes in the yarn and with pretty mock cable ribs at the bottom of the garment, the wrists and the mock turtle neck.

Amounts required:
4 100 g balls for sizes XS and S
5 100 g balls for sizes M, L and XL

There is a correction to the mock cable rib version of this sweater, the neck edging repeat should be worked 18 times, not 16 as stated in the pattern.
