This is the ultimate sweater for a cable lover. Just wrap yourself in a warm woolly hug.

Juuri is a relaxed boxy sweater full of fun squishy cables. The sweater is worked seamlessly top-down, starting at the back shoulders. It has long sleeves, a boxy shape with no waist shaping and the hem has a slit. The shoulders are shaped with short rows and the cable pattern has both written and charted instructions.
